Custom SharePoint group and SharePoint Home Search

[Bhavpreet Bains]

Hello,

I've created an additional SharePoint group to have Read Only access to the site. However, on searching for the site using the SharePoint page (https://<tenant>/_layouts/15/sharepoint.aspx), it doesn't find the site.

Is someone else experiencing the same? Is there any other work around, instead of adding the users to visitor group?

Thank you.

Have you tried the following?
(1) Mark the site to be re-indexed
(2) Add content to the site and see if based on having content in the site, the site actually appears in the search results
