Have you wondered how you could add your Blog Beast<\/strong> to Google Webmaster Tools? Now that you can map a domain name to your Empower Network blogging system<\/em>, you can also add the blog to webmaster tools. In this tutorial I am going to show you step by step how I do it with my domain name registrar, which is Namecheap.com<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Note that you can’t add your Blog Beast<\/em> original URL\u00a0gmichel.empowernetwork.com<\/a>, which contains your username as a subdomain. Google Webmaster Tools have different methods for you to confirm that you own the site, but none can be applied with the Empower Network<\/em> subdomain. You will need a valid registered domain name and access to the control panel of the domain.<\/p>\n

Add your Blog Beast to Google Webmaster Tools<\/h3>\n

You will need a Google<\/em> account to login here: Webmaster Tools<\/a><\/p>\n

If you already have websites there you will see them.<\/p>\n

\"Blog<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Click on the “ADD A SITE”<\/strong> red button. This pop-up window will show.<\/p>\n

\"Blog<\/p>\n

Add your Blog Beast<\/em> domain.<\/p>\n

Webmaster tools<\/strong> will present you with a recommended method<\/em> to verify your ownership of the website with a step by step guide. It will most likely be “Domain Name Provider”<\/em>.<\/p>\n

You can see that it selects automatically the registrar, which is NameCheap<\/em> for me.<\/p>\n

\"Blog<\/p>\n

\"Blog<\/p>\n

After you have followed the steps, the last thing will be to click “VERIFY”<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Let’s see how to set this up on\u00a0Namecheap.com<\/em><\/a>.<\/h3>\n

Login into your NameCheap<\/em> account and then go to Domains >> Manage Domains.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Blog<\/p>\n

All the domains you have will show, click on the one you use for the Blog Beast<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\"Blog<\/p>\n

And then click on “All Host Records”<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\"Blog<\/p>\n

It is where you have to enter the values given in points 4, 5 & 6 of the guide.<\/p>\n

\"Blog<\/p>\n

See the 3 elements that are circled in red under the sub-domain section.<\/p>\n

Then click the “Save Changes”<\/em> button<\/p>\n

\"Blog<\/p>\n

You domain is now set to be verified with Google Webmaster tools<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Back to Google Webmaster Tools<\/h2>\n

\"Blog<\/p>\n

Click\u00a0“VERIFY”<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"Blog<\/p>\n

Your Blog Beast will show on the page after it has been verified.<\/p>\n

Click the URL to access the tools.<\/p>\n

I hope this helps.<\/p>\n
