Blog Posts Not Recognized Individually in Search

Search engines can discover a blog post and it's topic, but the query results send the person with the query not to the individual blog post, but to the blog page.  No one, not even the most curious, is going to scroll down a blog page until they find the right blog post. No one!  

It would be a huge service to Weebly users, if individual blog posts could somehow ( I don't know the technology) end up as the query results. 

At the moment blog posts go to the great database in the sky, with no way for someone searching for a specific topic addressed in a blog post showing up directly in the query results. 

This pretty much cripples anyone posting on Weebly to having their blog posts not found by search engines. 

Adding this feature to blogs would bring Weebly from OK to awesome.

Ah, Google. The other day in incognito only the blog page displayed. Today after trying several searches, the response went to the post itself and/or the individual post plus the blog page. 

So, let's call this Google and resolve this. 

Thanks for responding.

Are you referring to blog posts in Google search results, @zaltair? Those should be indexed appropriately, where the link in Google sends someone to that particular blog permalink page. Do you have an example where that isn't happening?
