You simply choose the tag type (here: name) and then fill in the values (this example: 'verification' for name & '1234567' for content). After you have done that, you simply click SAVE at the bottom and the meta tag is automatically created and added to your site)
And that's it. Afterwards, you can return to the site that wanted you to verify your page :)
