Hello, this blog will give instructions for one of the ways you can add Google Site Verification Meta Tag to your WordPress site.
- Login to "Google Webmaster" and add your website
- Copy the ( "Verification Tag") that's given
- From the WordPress Dashboard
- Click on "Settings"
- Scroll down to "Google Site Verification"
- From "Google Site Verification Meta Tag Settings" page
- Paste the "copied" tag from the " Webmaster" Page into the box provided
- Click "Save Changes"
- You're done!
- I forgot to add this important addition to this blog.
- Keep in mind that when you add any code to the <head> section of your Theme.
- When you update the Theme, you'll have to add it again to the new Theme.
- What I do is copy the codes and paste them on a note pad or into a Words Document and save them on my Desktop or wherever you want to save them.
- This will save you a lot of time from having to go back to Web Master or Google's sites to find the codes again.
- I hope this will make things a lot clearer for you going forward.
- Take care all.
