Search Console helps you measure your site's Search traffic and performance, fix issues, and make your site shine in Google Search results.
How to add your website to Google Search Console
-
Sign in to your Google business account.
-
Go to Google Webmaster Tools.
-
Click “Add a property.”
-
Choose “Website” from the drop-down menu and enter the URL of your site. Make sure you’re using the exact URL that appears in the browser bar.
-
Click “Continue.”
-
Pick a way to verify you own your website (HTML file upload, domain name provider, HTML tag, GA tracking code, or GTM container snippet).
Google starts tracking data for your property as soon as you add it to Google Search Console—even before it has verified you’re the site owner.
Add the Google Site Verification Meta tag to your Site
Google will provide you with the following snippet similar to this:
<meta name="google-site-verification" content="iAbQ2BcHFvB9MuuKA5TK-W3M2M0d1bH2_pLn1wJ_RGg" />
The important part is the value of the content attribute:
iAbQ2BcHFvB9MuuKA5TK-W3M2M0d1bH2_pLn1wJ_RGg

Go to the
<head>
