      I`m sorry what do you mean `head` section ? On googles page it says paste before </head> does this just mean just my h1 tag? example blue widgets and on my homepage was..

      <h1>blue widgets</h1>

      So i paste the code like inbetween `widgets(code here)</h1>

      Thanks

        No - not (code here)</h1>

        but

        (code here)</head>

        --------------------------
        Some of the first code on your page - near the top but exactly where depends on platform - will be

        Code:
        <head>
meta stuff
other stuff
some other stuff
</head>
        The 'other stuff' agains depends on how your site is set up.
        BUT
        The <head></head> tags will be there.

        Hope this helps,

        P.S
        I also paste mine just before the </body> tag near the bottom of the page and it works fine there too.
        EDIT
        I'm guessing from your queston that you are using WordPress.
        If so,
        you need to go to the Editor and open header.php

        You should find the header tags in there...

    Place it in the head of the page, right before the end < / head > tag.

      As your sites seem to be driven by WordPress, here's
      a post you may find useful:

      How to Install Google Analytics in WordPress (no affil.)

      Rather than using plug-ins for this, I prefer to paste the
      Google Analytics code into footer.php (before the closing
      body tag: </body> ).

      Dedicated to mutual success,
