  Hello

  My site isnt indexed by Google.

  I am trying to verify the site via google search console.

  I have the text file

  google-site-verification=4elqB4WyRVj4Kf7gvlMSZnmCswTw-9Cr2P8aPvaDBNk

  But cannot find the area to verify in my admin area.

  Could you help please. Not much use having a site that Google cannot find.

  Thank
  you

  Hi!

  You can find a support document regarding webmaster tools here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/webmaster-tools/#google-search-console

  To use Google site verification, you’ll need to select HTML tag in the Search Console: https://search.google.com/search-console/ownership

  You’ll see a line of code that looks like this:
  <meta name="google-site-verification" content="rc2RXSkjV5rz9P2s2hTwdDsnwTu4tD-gmruKUrqBGjs" />

  Copy the entire code, then head to your Traffic settings: https://wordpress.com/settings/traffic/

  Toward the bottom of that page, you’ll see a section called Site Verification Services. Paste this code in the Google box.

  Hope this helps!
