Hi,
A lot of what i've read in here seems waaaay over my head so i'd imagine this query is just gonna annoy everyone but i can't figure out how to do it!
I want to verify my website (which is all of 2 days old) with Google Webmaster thing and there are two ways of doing it, by adding a META tag which is all well and good but i can't find the place to paste this into - any ideas where this might be on the directadmin menu? I've played around but can't find it.
or 2 by adding a html file of google's naming so that it goes www.examplesite.co.uk/thegooglefile - i've tried this but it keeps failing because when i upload it to the only thing i can see with 'root' in the name in the file manager, it adds like one or two things (like example/homepage/googlefile) in between my site's domain name and the google file so it won't work.
I've been trying different things for about 2 hours and getting no-where. Please don't laugh at me!
I've no experience or knowlege about the website building, i wanted to see what i could do on my own and am quite proud i've managed to get as far as i have without help!
If anyone can recommend a *simple* guide to webbuilding, like a dummies guide if one exists then please let me know it because that would really come in handy right now. My website is kinda a pet project at the mo, want to really get into it but like i say just glancing at the subject titles for all of your posts is like reading chinese! Also should i be buying more software as i don't have any website software other than directadmin
Anyway, any help would be much appreciated and i'm hoping i've not annoyed people by asking something probably so basic! Oh and sorry if its in the wrong forum!
Thanks
Lisa
