You need to become a RAINER. When you upgrade your posts go public. It is the best money an agent can pay. My active rain blog is my leading source of new clients after referrals. Become active, earn points and the fee drops and will become free at 500k points,

As others have said, you need to become a paying member for your posts to be public.  I believe you can do a 1 year plan for $199.  Once you do that, you can make previous posts public (or leave as private).  There is no need to delete your blog posts as they is no harm in having them here in members only mode.
