Hey @dmalone! Go to Settings > SEO in the editor, disable the option to hide the site from search engines, and then re-publish. This will update your robots.txt file so search engines can crawl the site.

Hey Adam,

I changed my settings as previously instructed and when I Google search my website directly PrettySimpleOrganizing.net it says: 

Visit Their Website
www.prettysimpleorganizing.net/
A description for this result is not available because of this site's robots.txt

???  What am I missing ???

You're not missing anything, @dmalone - it simply takes Google a some time to update its search cache of your site.  Now that they can crawl it, they should update automatically soon once they update their index.
