1.What does it do exactly?! Im assuming it gives me my sites stats etc..
2.When I try to add my site, It asks me to upload a verification html file to my website. When I do I get this error:
Verify ownership Verification failed for ******s | ******* using the HTML file method (less than a minute ago). Your verification file was not found. There are several ways to prove to Google that you own http://www.***.com/. Select the option that is easiest for you. Recommended method Alternate methods History Recommended: Upload an HTML file to your server You can use this option if you can upload new files to your site. Instructions: 1. Download this HTML verification file. [*****] 2. Upload the file to http://www.***.com/ 3. Confirm successful upload by visiting http://www.*****.com/google*****.html in your browser. 4. Click Verify below. To stay verified, don't remove the HTML file, even after verification succeeds. |
Ive gone into my hostgator CP and just uploaded it in the home file. Im thinking that maybe I need to put it ina certain file? Because when I click on the link at #3(highlighted in red) It brings up my website with a 404 error.
Any Ideas on whats going wrong? Or subsequently, If I even need to be doing this?
