    I have vBulletin forums, was trying to verify my site by uploading the html page with google code, but the error says: We've detected that your 404 (file not found) error page returns a status of 200 (Success) in the header

    I do not know how to verify by the placing the meta tag on a php file.
    It says: Copy the meta tag listed below and paste it in your site's home page in the first <head> section of the page, before the first <body> section

    Where do i keep the meta tag on an index.php file?
    Where do i have to keep the google analytics tool on a php page?

    Please help me, i am just new to google.

    your site is currently "Can't find server" here

    if placing Meta Tag, put the code right after your title tag:

    <title>Your Site Title</title>
    <META name="verify-v1" content="Cpnhtg35...=" /> <-- put your verification code here

    You should fix the responses codes for your site. Make sure pages that are not found return a 404 error first. No point telling a spider that the page is ok when it doens't exist.

    if you have .htaccess code on your site, delete it and complete your verify and after that upload your .htaccess again

    I am planning to use wordpress on homepage and i have my forums in a sub-folder.
    Do i need to verify for both the folders?

    I deleted .htaccess and successfully verified home page, but its showing pages and links of my old site.
    I want it to index my forums
