      This is a random issue that I've been trying to get to the bottom of over the last few months.

      First I thought it might be that I have a spammy host, so I changed it. My site loads a little faster but the homepage is still totally non-visible. Other pages and posts index no problem..  It's really quite frustrating.

      http://bit.ly/1hA8DqV

      Any suggestions welcome. Standard WP, running Wordpress SEO by Joost and a few other basic plugins...

        Looking at your code, I see:

        name="robots" content="noindex,follow,noodp,noarchive,noydir" />

        That page appears to be noindexed. Check your settings.

          • My beta site (beta.website.com) has been inadvertently indexed. Its cached pages are taking traffic away from our real website (website.com). Should I just "NO INDEX" the entire beta site and if so, what's the best way to do this? Please advise.

          • I have a site that has both http:// and https:// versions indexed, e.g. https://www.homepage.com/ and http://www.homepage.com/. How do I de-index the https// versions without losing the link juice that is going to the https://homepage.com/ pages?
