When you google my site you see ‘A description for this result is not available because of this site’s robots.txt’
How do I add a description?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
Your site’s robots.txt file is fine, but search engines also give that error if they haven’t indexed your site yet, which is the case here.
It takes around 6-10 weeks for any new site to be indexed by search engines, and the site won’t appear in search results until that process completes, giving the robots.txt error instead. As your site is only two weeks old, it will still be a few weeks before your site is fully indexed and appearing in search results.
But this process happens automatically. We ping search engines every time you publish a new post so they know they need to index your site, and your site’s settings are also all correct so it can be indexed by search engines.
You can see more information on this here:
