    Re: How do you post a MetaTag

    A meta tag is a piece of script on your site homepage (or any page, for that matter) that contains the information that search engines look for and display. This is the first few lines of source from your homepage.

    <html>
    <head>
    <title>Rotholtz.com -</title>
    <meta name="keywords" content="Rotholtz, .com,hackng,tech,music,wii,nintendo,ben,elijah,vio lin,technology,tech,news,Elijah, Rotholtz.com,Wired, Popcap,Games,Engadget,AIM, Neopets,New, .com,www.,Help, Technology, tech,
    Wacom,Tablet, Ben, Stuff,hack,Bigfish games,
    Gaming, MIT,
    ">
    <meta name="description" content="Rotholtz.com is a place to find out about the latest tech news.
    ">

    <meta HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=US-ASCII">
    <style type="text/css">
    The red underlined text is your meta tag and description.

    To add the Google Webmaster META tag, navigate to your home page and make a new line right after the text that stpvoice highlighted in red above.

    Paste the code provided by Google Webmaster into that space and go back to Google Webmaster to verify ownership of your website.

    Sorry, I thought you were talking about the meta tags themselves, not a website ownership tag.

    Sorry about that-ignore me

    But don't ignore the part of your website's code that stpvoice excerpted, that'll come into good use when you need to know where to put the META tag.

    Basically, it can pretty much go anywhere between <head> and </head>, and not within other tags (meaning it can't go between the <title> </title> tags).

    In the situation of the original poster, removing the META tag will prevent him from identifying himself as the owner of the website, and thus prevent him from using Google Webmaster Tools.
