    I have added all the information I could find from google that they are showing that is incorrect and causing my page not to be searchable. I don’t know what I am doing wrong and really could use some help. My URL http://www.arlingtonfirstbaptistchurch.org
    I was told to verify the property, so I did using this method Verification details
    (email visible only to moderators and staff) is a verified owner using these methods:
    Meta tag:
    <meta name=”google-site-verification” content=”MHvpIUXs0GKymAVYcv5V9TGsMIyHwlwUsXvlZC0OKNU” />
    However it also shows that all verification attempts failed

    So it stated I could verify using a different method. (see below)
    • Google Tag Manager
    Use your Google Tag Manager account.
    • HTML file upload
    Upload an HTML file to your site.
    • Domain name provider
    Sign in to your domain name provider.
    • Google Analytics
    Use your Google Analytics account.
    • HTML tag
    • Already verified using this method.
    • Add a meta tag to your site’s home page.
    However it is returning this

    The site you are asking about does not seem to be hosted on WordPress.COM so you need to make friends over at WordPress.ORG the keepers of the software you are using.
