  I have tried to verify with google webmaster by copying and pasting the link at WordPress tools into the google verification bar but google say they can’t verify as the verification file was not found
  I tried both copying the “content” and (as google said to copy exactly) the full file
  Any ideas please? It seems this should be straightforward

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  The process we use for verifying free hosted WordPress.com blogs with search engines is found here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/webmaster-tools/

  Note: Even if you do not verify the blog the content will be indexed by search engines so don’t feel panicky about this please.

  WordPress.com provides the search engines with site maps. We bloggers do nothing. http://en.support.wordpress.com/sitemaps/
