If you conduct a search for google custom search blog and look at the results, you will notice this:

Google Custom Search Blog

Why is there just a title and url? Well, if you look closer at the home page of the blog, you will find that they have added a nofollow, noindex tag to the page.

<meta name="ROBOTS" content="NOINDEX,NOFOLLOW" />

Why did Google do this? We did report in the past that Google's Blogger software by default adds this tag to all new blogs. Maybe, Google forgot to remove the default option from this blog?
