Hi Robert,

Yes its in the wrong place. You want to place it on the root of your server. Put it where all your other html pages are.

Soory Robert... do you see your other html files in that directory you posted above? All I could see is the .swf files so I thought you may be in another sub-folder.

Steve,

That screen shot is from the files on my computer, not the server. I don't know how to access those.

Thats why it isn't working. The whole point of that file is for google to know who you are on the internet. You need to upload that html to the same spot as your website is on your server.

Hey Robert, you're using VSD.

Simply click 'Edit/Edit Header from the top menu.

Paste the code <meta name="google-site-verification" content="Lti0LgN1rCMYleFUxsmFVrQ6LMb-GYYvpsvEmWUgkjA" /> in the box that pops up, where it says 'Header HTML'

Click OK

Save your VSD site. Publish your VSD site. Done.

I did that as well. Still not verified. This is hopeless.

I guess I should. Usually, these problems are a result of pilot error.

Have something to add? We’d love to hear it!
