Can’t verify site
-
Hi, I am following the instructions to verify the site but must be doing it wrong?
I get the code, paste it in the tools section under Google ( is that what they mean by uploading to my site) but when I click on the link to verify it says Oops page not found.
Any tips pls?
Thank you
NatalieI have screen shots if I can upload them here ? Also I did a search to see if anyone else had the issue but came up empty. Tia
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there, If you have screenshots you can upload those to your site’s Media Library and then let us know here that you’ve done that. Only Staff will be able to access those. If you upload your screenshots to a public place like imgur forum volunteers will also be able to access them.
Are you following this guide to verify your site with Google? https://en.support.wordpress.com/webmaster-tools/

Thanks very much for this. I have added them to ‘media’ on the blog as I couldn’t work out the other ones (apologies, hopeless with technology)
Thanks again

Hi Nat,
You need to use the alternate verification method (not the HTML one) as illustrated in these instructions:

If this doesn’t work or you have more questions, just let me know and I’ll be happy to help!
