Robots preventing description in google
-
Am using Gridspace theme, its great, but when you google my site guyjameswhitworth.com you get the following description.
“A description for this result is not available because of this site’s robots.txt”
I’ve just changed the settings to allow search engines to index the site. Will this correct this in time? Or do i need to do something else with the robots
Thanks
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

When you set a blog to private while setting up and then do your set up and make it public the search results produce what you describe. As soon as you begin to publish posts frequently and search engines index it that result is driven downward in search results.
Note that it can take weeks for search engines to index content in a new blog and/or to re-index content under a new URL. https://en.support.wordpress.com/search-engines/

To verify blog ownership of a WordPress.com hosted blog with the major search engines you must use this process > http://en.support.wordpress.com/webmaster-tools/
Note: Even if you do not verify the blog the content will be indexed by search engines so don’t feel panicky about this please.WordPress.com automatically supplies sitemaps for our blogs to search engines – we do nothing. http://en.support.wordpress.com/sitemaps/#xml-sitemaps-for-search-engines
I recommend using the step by step tutorial linked to the bottom of your Admin page https://learn.wordpress.com
