Error «Blocked by Meta Robots» Description
Indicates pages that are disallowed from indexing by the 'noindex', or 'none' directives in the <meta name="robots"/>, or <meta name="[bot name]"/> tags in the <head> section where the [bot name] is a name of a certain search robot.
The Importance of the Problem
Meta Robots instructions help to disallow search engines from showing website pages in search results. The Meta Robots tag is mostly used for blocking unimportant pages (e.g. shopping cart, login, sign up pages, etc.). For these directives to be followed by search robots, the URL must not be blocked by a robots.txt file.
How to Fix Error
Make sure that search engines are allowed to show important pages in search, while unimportant are the only ones that are disallowed.
