  I’m following your “Pinterest Site Verification” instructions to the letter and it will not verify. I get a response that says “Domain Not Found”. Please help!

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

  Hi homestagingbloomingtonil,
  Did you try these steps?

  -Log in at http://pinterest.com/ with your Pinterest account.
  -Go to your profile and click the Edit Profile button.
  -Enter your Website address if you haven’t already.
  -Click the Verify Website button.
  -On the next page, next to How to verify, copy the meta tag (you’ll need to enter this on WordPress.com).
  -Leave the verification page open and go to your blog dashboard (in a new tab/window).
  -Open the Tools → Available Tools Page and paste the string from the How to Verify field of the Pinterest verification page in the Pinterest Site Verification field of your blog dashboard.
  -Click on Save Changes.
  -Go back to the verification page and click the Complete Verification button.

  If it still will not verify please make sure your site is not private. I hope this helps!

  Thank you for the information. I appreciate your response. I tried these exact steps several times and then realized I had a different website entered in the box where you enter the appropriate site. I have more than one, and the one I had in the field wasn’t the one that was linked to WordPress. Victory after hours of anguish! Thanks again.
