No routes match "/ index". Simple problem?

New to all worlds of coding and new to RoR. Last night I did a tutorial and ran into some problems. My friend helped with some of them. I asked a few here. And yet this one puzzles me. I can not find the problem.

The page loads, it shows what needs to be shown. But when I click the link there, it leads to the following:

    Routing Error

No route matches "/index"

So I did rake routes, and I got it

Dennis-Buizerts-MacBook-Pro:gpoff dennisbuizert$ rake routes
site_index GET /site/index(.:format) {:controller=>"site", :action=>"index"}
site_about GET /site/about(.:format) {:controller=>"site", :action=>"about"}
 site_help GET /site/help(.:format)  {:controller=>"site", :action=>"help"}
      root     /(.:format)           {:controller=>"Site", :action=>"index"}

This is on my .rb routes

root :to => "Site#index"
get "site/index"       
get "site/about"
get "site/help"

I tried adding map.connectsand match, but that didn't seem to resolve it. And my development.log says the following:

Try

get 'index' => "site#index"

instead

get "site/index"
