* I’m trying to add a code to my header required for Google webtools. The colde
allows them to verify me as my sites owner.
I’ve added it between and
as requested, it’s showing up in “view source”, but Google says it’s
not there.
* Has anyone done this and do you see anything wrong with where I put it?
I’ve
double checked the code, it’s exactly what they gave me.

* Is this the code they gave you?
`meta name="verify-v1" content="wX9Cy3zRYzUqlVC4xx8bauBfBsfvnH03TJ0MgMwAwS4
=" />`
* First, put that underneath your other meta tag just for organizations sake.
* ```
```
* Assuming that the above is the google generated code, then try getting rid of
the “=” sign at the end of the the meta content. If that doesn’t do it, just
get a new code from google’s webmaster tools and use that instead.
