Why my Fantastico will create this meta description?

    In my web hosting, there is a Fantastico which automatically build Wordpress blogs for me (just like other hosting). However, this one will generate one more line in all the blogs' head section.

    <meta name='robots' content='noindex,nofollow' />

    Why will that be?

    What is the meaning of this meta description????

    Please kindly give me some advices. Thank you.

    NOINDEX - prevents the page from being included in the Search engine index.
    NOFOLLOW - prevents Search engine from following any links on the page

    Are you sure your hosting adds that line in your site ??? Are you using free hosting ?

    I dont' think any webhosting companies will do that...

    No, I am using paid hosting and one of the possible reasons is that the default setting for privacy is :

    "I would like to block search engines, but allow normal visitors"

    Is it the possible reason?

    Yes. Don't choose that and the meta tag will be removed.
