Im trying to verify my website with googles webmaster but having trouble. I have followed their instruction about where to put the code but its still not happening. Can anyone help or shep any light on this?
I would simply use the upload file method if your having problems with meta tag option. hope that helps, Nigel EDIT: actually, did that make sense? I am assuming your trying to verify a sitemap... are you referring to something else?
I will give that a go. Im just annoyed that its no working and have followed their instructions exactly. Thanks
Just noticed your edit there. Im trying to verify with google webmaster that im the site owner. I dont want to insert the sitemap. This is last resort.
Yes the fastest way is to upload a html file with the confirmation code as page name. It never lasted more than a couple of seconds for me to see the new domain verified.
no problem. Thanks for that. I will give it a go tomorrow, my head is spinning trying to get it sorted so off to bed.
I think I would have to crawl in there. It is really quite simple so I suspect you are just missing something silly. aside from that I can't tell you a whole lot but this may help http://www.110mb.com/forum/cant-use-google-webmaster-tools-t17946.0.html Nigel
u need to put meta verification code after meta desc, meta keyword link and upload same page, then u need to click on verify button in google webmaster tool.
You have to choose two option. that is html file or meta tag elements. If you like html file, you download the file and upload your web server with ftp help. Or if you like meta tag, select and copy the meta tag, put that element within (<head> meta tage </head>) head.
Hi For Verifying your site there are 2 options one is uploading file and second adding meta tag you can choose it depends on you.
I was having an issue today with the site verification. One of my previously verified sites became unverified and then it wouldn't work after I tried again. Might just be a temporary problem.
