Hi all,

So I have been setting up my new photography site and have been having a bit of a problem getting it working with google search. I have entered all the homepage meta keywords and homepage meta description but still when i type the name of the site into google seach (with quotation marks) it just comes up with this as the description - "A description for this result is not available because of this site's robots.txt – learn more"

Has anyone had this problem before? Or know how to fix it?

The website is www.curiousslothphotography.co.uk

Thanks for any help!

Tom

    It appears that the homepage meta description is not properly used for the actual homepage.

    I typed site:www.curiousslothphotography.co.uk and saw the same results you reported. I then tried the same thing with my site, and the homepage meta description was not shown for the base home page. Instead I saw my menu entries followed by my copyright. Other pages showed text from the page or the homepage meta description. The only page that looks wrong is the home page. I know that the homepage meta description was used for the homepage at some point in time, guess I haven't looked at that for a while.
