Hi Guys

I’m new to code so please bare with me.. I’m trying to add meta tag to confirm ownership of webpage for an affiliate program. I can only verify the ownership of my domain by adding a META tag into the section of your HTML code on your homepage.

I can’t see where i do this? Is it in theme panel, via c panel bluehost or somewhere else??

I currently use yoast for seo and google metas so I’m wondering whether it’s suppose to be with them, but no where to add.

Thanks in advance for any advice

Hi,

Try adding the needed code in theme header file, between the head tags

Unfortunately that didn’t work. I was able to save the code but the company still says
incomplete. Any other ideas Simon?

Likely need to be way more specific …
does it need to go into the header area, outside the page HTML, or in the actual body of the pages with the HTML ?

If it needs to go in the header, outside the body HTML, you can simply add to either the header.php before the BODY tag, or in the footer, after the BODY element.
