Okay, there are some nifty changes now in the verification process at Google Webmasters, particularly with the blogger (blogspot) blogs. If you aren’t aware yet, read further.
If you didn’t know what verification was, and was living under a rock or in a cave or something – this is a process whereby you “introduce” your blog to Google webmasters, after which Google can monitor the blog (after inserting the tracking code) for traffic and all that metrics.
Okay, so you knew that already ? Now for the change.
Blogs hosted on Blogger (that haven’t yet been verified) will have to use the meta tag verification method from now on, rather than the "one-click" integration from the Blogger dashboard. The "Webmaster Tools" auto-verification link from the Blogger dashboard is no longer working and will soon be removed.
In Webmaster Tools
1. Click the "Add a site" button on the Webmaster Tools Home page
2. Enter your blog’s URL (for example, googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com) and click the "Continue" button to go to the Manage verification page
3. Select the "Meta tag" verification method and copy the meta tag provided
In Blogger
4. Go to your blog and sign in
5. From the Blogger dashboard click the "Layout" link for the blog you’re verifying
6. Click the "Edit HTML" link under the "Layout" tab which will allow you to edit the HTML for your blog’s template
7. Paste the meta tag (copied in step 3) immediately after the <head> element within the template HTML and click the "SAVE TEMPLATE" button
In Webmaster Tools
8. On the Manage Verification page, confirm that "Meta tag" is selected as the verification method and click the "Verify" button
