Step 3 - Getting and Copying the HTML Tag Code

Once you've clicked continue, you will see the Verify ownership pop-up.

There is no need to download the HTML file because we are going to verify another way - using an HTML TAG instead of an HTML file.

To find the HTML tag, click on the RHS where it says:

"Upload an HTML file to your website"

Google will now give you 5 different ways to verify your site.

You are going to choose the 2nd one, HTML tag.

Click on HTML Tag so that you can see the code.

Then click COPY to copy the entire code.



Do not click verify or done just yet...

Because now you have to login to your Wordpress website admin dashboard to copy the code using the All-in-One SEO plugin.

Proceed to step 4.
