Hello,

which file should i copy this at cpanel?

thank you

 

Recommended: HTML tag Add a meta tag to your site's home page.

1. Copy the meta tag below, and paste it into your site's home page. It should go in the <head> section, before the first <body> section.

<html>
<head>
<meta name="google-site-verification" content="pwAPZ7jd_bebNTJUqWasGpXmzOasW7mjQ2" />
<title> My title </title>
</head> 
<body>
page contents
</body>
</html>

2. Click Verify below.

To stay verified, don't remove the meta tag, even after verification succeeds.

Hi all

 

My sitemap has stopped being recognised since I upgraded to 1.4.11. This has only recently come to my attention.

 

I have tried adding a google code to my header.tpl file in my theme but google cannot find it when I try to verify.

 

Please can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong.

Your sitemap looks fine to me, The sitemap test shows positive results.

Try using alternate verification methods for Google webmaster, Once verified submit it through webmaster tool,

Thank you for the reply.

 

I was not able to solve the issue using the normal paste method.

 

However 2 days ago I was told about using the DNS method in my CPanel and that worked okay and you have kindly confirmed it has worked.

 

many thanks

Please post that solution here, so that the other can get the benefit, after posting the solution mark that thread as solved,

 

Have a Good Day!

Hi 

 

Google give you another option of using the DNS in your CPanel.

 

I simply copied the code and my hosts entered the code for me.

 

I use TSO hosts in the UK and have done for 3 years. Always very helpful and provide a quick and friendly service.

 

Highly recommended.

I also have a question about Google Sitemap.

I use the Gsitemap module that came with Prestashop, I created the Google site map with success.

Now when I submitted the Sitemap to to google webmasters it didn' t get accepted. "Cause of formatting issues"

What other tools do you use to make a sitemap?
