Hi all,
currently I was asked to add a <meta name...>tag in the header of my start page to verify that I am domain owner.
How can I - ideally managed by the board - influence the header, include this new tag or change existing ones?
Thanx for any help!

I was under the impression Google didn’t use meta tags or meta descriptions any more. Meta descriptions can still have an effect although not affecting ranking they can show up in searches.

If you have a Google Search Console account to get analytics for a domain you need to verify you control it. One of the ways to do that is a specific meta tag. Other methods they use is a .html file that can be uploaded to server or DNS entry. Other services also use the same methods.

Hi all,
in fact I am asked a) by google for a verification by meta tag but also from another platform, therefore I would need some "free" definable meta tag lines to be added in header. Or something similar...

In addition... I am asked by google tag manager to add code
a) in the header
b) directly after <body>
for all pages...
Is there a way to do so i) within the administration of the blog or ii) do I have to look into the scripts and manually adapt them?
If just ii) any hints what php-files are best for that?
Thanx a lot for your help!

I changed the overall_header.hml for prosilver (what I use) and uploaded the file, flushed cache, but I still can't find the code in the source.
Any hints?
