When I did mine I copied the code they supplied which is like
below
<meta name="google-site-verification" content="Your code from
google" />
I didn't need to do anything else other than past it into the
Meta Tags: - Inside <head> tag Box

This is were it is failing google-site-verification:
googlee173c543dd21cdd5.html it should be like 173c543dd21cdd5
There are two options when you create a console use the other
not the option for a html page.
