 In this video, I'll go through the steps you need to follow to verify your website in Search Console using the Google Analytics tracking code. In order to verify your website using the Google Analytics tracking code, you'll need an account with Google Analytics that use the same Google account. You must have at least edit permission on the Google Analytics account. If you're not sure which permission you have, check the Google Analytics Help Center. Before verifying, ensure that your home page has the Google Analytics tracking code in the head section of the page. Although your Analytics tracking code might work for analytics in the body section as well, for Search Console verification, it must be in the head section. Open your home page in a browser, look at the page source code, and confirm that the tag is present in the head tag of the page. After you click Add Property, add your website URL under the URL Prefix option and click Continue. You must be logged into Search Console with the same Google account that you use for Google Analytics. If you perform the steps above correctly, verification should work immediately. If it doesn't, click the full details link to learn about potential errors. You can find out more about those errors and how to handle them in the Help Center. The Google Analytics tracking code will be used only to verify site ownership. No Google Analytics data will be accessed following this process. If you're looking to configure Search Console data in Analytics, that's an entirely separate process. Check the link below to learn more. Thanks for watching, and check the Google Webmaster's YouTube channel for more videos on Search Console.
