Hidden From Search Engines

  • Unknown's avatar

    I keep receiving notification that my blog is hidden from search engines – when i click on it, it brings me to a settings page, where it shows I have search engines enabled – so I don’t know how to “unhide”? Help please! :)

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hello there,

    From whom are you receiving notification that your blog is hidden from search engines? Is this contact made via email from a non-WordPress.com source?

    Please let me know and I can investigate this further for you! Many thanks.

    Good Evening!
    The “Notification” itself shows up as a little triangle with an exclamation point inside next to where my notification deal is in the upper right hand corner of page. When I hover over it, it tells me the issue and then provides a link to click on to go to settings. When I go to settings, it shows me that I already have it enabled for search engines. Thanks for looking into it, appreciate it!

    Hello again Jen,

    I’ve searched for your site via Google and Bing and the good news is that it is certainly not hidden!

    But I’d like to help you figure out why you’re getting this warning. If possible, send me a screenshot of this notification, so I can troubleshoot it for you. You can simply upload the screenshot to your Media Library, like any other image, and I’ll be able to access it from there. Just drop me a line here when you’ve added the image and I’ll take a look.

    The page at the following link has some helpful tips for taking screenshots:

    Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks very much.

    Hello!
    Thank you so much! Next time I see it I will certainly do that! It’s possible it resolved itself in the meantime – because I have not seen it in the last few days. Either way, I appreciate the help!
