How do I verify my website in Google Search Console?
Verification
After adding your property, Google will ask you to verify ownership. The recommended method depends on your property type:
- Domain property: Add a DNS TXT record through your domain registrar
- URL prefix property: Choose from HTML file upload, HTML meta tag, Google Analytics, or Google Tag Manager
For most users, the HTML meta tag method (adding a tag to your homepage's <head> section) is the simplest option.
How AutoPSEO helps
Verification only needs to happen once per property. After that, AutoPSEO can see the property immediately: sign in with the Google account that owns it, tick the property on the My Sites page and the dashboard fills up with the last 16 months of data within a minute.
