Searching on my blog is not working

It looks like you aren’t actually grabbing the search query in your form. You need to include value="<?php the_search_query(); ?>" in your input field.

Here is a link to the docs for the search form.

I think what you’re looking for is under the ‘Theme Form’ heading.
