It is easy to verify your websites using the All In One SEO Pack that came with your WordPress installation.

There is no need for added plugins or the use of FTP. The All In One SEO will take care of it for you.

Using this method you can verify your websites with both Google Search Console (formerly Google Webmaster Tools) and Bing Webmaster Tools at the same time.

Important note:

*Leave both the Google and Bing windows open until you complete the verification process!*

Let's get started.

The All In One SEO Pack


Go to the Dashboard in the WordPress Admin Area.

Click on the All In One SEO > General Settings

Scroll down the page until You come to the Webmaster Verification Section.

As you can see there are ares for the codes from both Google Search Console (formerly Google Webmaster tools) and Bing Webmaster center.

Leave this window open.

Let's get our code for Google Search Console >>>>

Bing gave me no trouble at all, it always seems to be Google that is the trouble maker for me. Could you give us more details as to what happened? Take a screen shot?

When I sign into webmaster and put in my information and click the save button nothing happens.

I would suggest that you double check the code, even one tiny extra number, symbol or letter will skew the whole thing.

What I do when the instructions SEEM clear, and I still don't have success, I go over and read the instructions again and again. Often I've missed something.

Hmm after reading your statement again, are you saying you were having problems completing your Bing Account information? If you were trying this yesterday, that might have been part of the problem. With so many people using the internet yesterday, I had EXTREME problems getting anything done online yesterday. Speeds were slow, and I had trouble getting payment to go through on sites that I was trying to buy something. Black Friday frenzy!

triple check the code, just to make sure you don't have a small error there. If that does not work, I would suggest you contact Support here. Support will want screen shots so do the procedure again, taking screen shots as you go and paste into your Support request.
