Home page not being indexed

[EchelonSEO]

Hi Moz crew. I have two sites (one is a client's and one is mine). They are both Wordpress sites and both are hosted on WP Engine. They have both been set up for a long time, and are "on-page" optimized. Pages from each site are indexed, but Google is not indexing the homepage for either site. Just to be clear -  I can set up and work on a Wordpress site, but am not a programmer. Both seem to be fine according to my Moz dashboard. I have Webmaster tools set up for each - and as far as I can tell (definitely not an exper in webmaster tools) they are okay. I have done the obvious and checked that the the box preventing Google from crawling is not checked, and I believe I have set up the proper re-directs and canonicals.Thanks in advance!

Hey Brent,

Both websites seem to be cached recently

1. Echelonseo.com: Cached on 3rd Feb, 2014, check yourself cache:www.echelonseo.com

2. Jneelco.com: Cached on 2nd Feb, 2014: check yourself cache:jneelco.com

How do you assume that Home Pages are not indexed?

I hope this will help!

I'm seeing the home page for both domains in the search results when I search for both the domain name and for the brand name ("Echelon SEO" and "Neel Ratliff".

What makes you think they've not been indexed? Are you getting organic search traffic from Google to your home pages? (Look at your Google Analytics, You'll find the report under Behaviour -> Site Content -> Landing Pages. Apply a custom segment or use the secondary dimension "Source/Medium" to help you break out the Google Organic traffic.

What makes you think you have a problem?

Yes - I need to clarify. Both pages are indexed, but not showing up in search. Jneel is an accountant in Boise - they do not show up in the Top 200 in for Boise CPA - there "services" page shows up instead. For EchelonSEO - the homepage is set up for Boise SEO, but also does not appear in the Top 200 - instead a deep Boise SEO page appears. Why do the homepages not appear in the SERPs?

I'll post the same response as I did below:
