Can't clear this error: "Your homepage cannot be indexed by search engines."

    This error started coming up today out of the blue. I haven’t changed anything.

    My Settings -> Reading -> The box that says “Discourage search engines from indexing this site” is NOT checked.

    Webmaster tools reports no problems.

    Webmaster tools and my site show the following for robots.txt

    I found this link: https://kb.yoast.com/article/319-your-site-isnt-indexable but this hasn’t proved useful at all so far. on page.org just says “crawling crawling crawling” it seems like the only thing I can do is request a crawl, not try to resolve this specific problem. Support does not answer the chat there.

    This is a really alarming error to be getting as a false positive if that’s what’s happening!

    OnPage.org now sent me a report. It didn’t find any indexibility issues. It did find something else that I reported previously (with no response), two more pages that are not getting auto generated meta descriptions. One showed a meta description which did not appear in the source code and the other showed “Modify your meta description by entering it right here” – neither could be fixed without going and manually entering (and on the other re-entering) the meta description and updating the post.

    Meanwhile my dashboard still says this: “Your homepage cannot be indexed by search engines. This is very bad for SEO and should be fixed.”

    How do I fix this?

    Hi ivailo82,

    I am sorry that we can’t answer your support request that fast.

    We are experience a huge amount of support tickets. So unfortunately it can take a while until we answer.
    Could you post one URL which you have problems with? Or your ticket ID? It has four or five numbers and can be found in our confirmation e-mail.

    That would be great.

    Cheers
    Chris from your OnPage.org Team
