SMNTCS Google Webmaster Tools

Lýsing

SMNTCS Google Webmaster Tools adds the Google Search Console verification tag to the head of every page, so Google can confirm that you own the site.

In Search Console, choose the HTML tag verification method and copy the tag. Paste the whole tag or just the code into the Customizer under Google Search Console, publish, and click Verify in Search Console.

Google Search Console was formerly called Google Webmaster Tools.

SOS

Why do I need Google Webmaster Tools in first place?

Google Webmaster Tools enables web masters to detect indexing issues, e.g. if the Google Bot cannot access the page or if missing pages occur in the search index.

How do I add Google Webmaster Tools to my page?

  1. Go to https://search.google.com/search-console/welcome
  2. Provide your URL in the section URL prefix, e.g. https://example.com, and click on Continue
  3. Now, open the section HTML tag within the section Other verification methods
  4. Copy the meta tag, e.g. <meta name="google-site-verification" content="BeFze6w_rrIm1NFPKJ-pDDbkf0oeqrtC5sjqb6WzCoE" />
  5. Go to Google Webmaster Tools and paste your verification code

Why am I not able to save the verification code?

This issue might be caused by a security plugin. If you use a security plugin, e.g. Wordfence, then disable it to save your verification code and activate it once you’re done.
