Google verification

[WebPageOneSolutions]

I use Google webmaster tools to help manage my sites and projects.

For some reason the .html verification file which i have uploaded to my root directory cant be accessed by Google and returns a 404 error.

I also have the same problem with Yahoo verification files.

I know that the files are located in exactly the right place on my host platform.

Could anyone shed some light on resolving this problem please.

The Problemed domain name is http://www.seoconsultantsdirectory.com

Many Thanks.

Hi Lee

This can be solved by verifying the meta tag, added in templates/Default/header.tpl

after

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{$templates}/css/datepicker.css" />

{literal}<meta name="verify-v1" content="your google code" />{/literal}

I cannot find default folder.
I am using v2.3.05.

Thanks.
