Site not coming up in searches
-
Hello!
I launched my new site early last week, and clicked the “Allow search engines to index this site” option. Now when I look for it in Google I can only find it by looking up the url, and when it comes up, it says: “A description for this result is not available because of this site’s robots.txt” . There is no description of the site.
Anything I can do to change this? I’d like my site to be readily accessible! Many thanks!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hello!
At this point, it is just a waiting game. Search engines can take 4-6 weeks or more to add any new sites. You can try registering your site on Google and request an update, which may help speed things up. Also, check out this documentation on Search Engines for additional information: http://en.support.wordpress.com/search-engines/

http://joroberts.org/ – seems to be a Page based site – always a hard sell – you should add some Posts so your site calls up the search engines and tells them you are alive with fresh content

You were right — it just took longer than the few days I’d been anticipating. It’s showing up now — and the robots.txt reference has gone. Many thanks, all of you!
