(If you don't already, you can follow me on Pinterest here.)
Verifying your website on Pinterest is a good for bloggers. Once verified, Pinterest will prominently display the blog web address, which should help bloggers engage with others and "brand" their page. (By increasing our credibility and hopefully traffic too.) It is also excellent for SEO since it will give you a valuable link back from Pinterest.
The verifiacation feature has actually been available for about a month now, but Bloggers on the Blogger platform haven't been able verify their website because we can't upload files to our server. (Or at least we couldn't do it without some serious tech savviness...)
 "Pin It")
Pinterest has now made it possible for those of us on the blogger platform to easily verify our websites using an HTML Meta Tag! Yea!
It's a fairly simple process, and I will walk you through it (to the best of my ability) with a few screen shots...
Get the tutorial after the jump...
*** Update! Make sure you are in the "old look" of Pinterest when you start this, for some reason the code generated when you are in the "new look" is causing some people problems...***
Log in to your Pinterest account and go to settings:
Scroll down to Verify Website and click the button.
On the next page you will have the option to download an HTML file or to Verify with an HTML Meta Tag.
Click the option to verify with a Meta Tag. You will see the following:
Select and copy your meta tag. (It is the code in the gray box.)
Log in to blogger and go to "Template" and select Edit HTML.
You will see a warning message, click proceed.
Click the button to expand widget templates.
Hit CNRL F and search for the word " head ".
You should find two - the opening head tag: <head> and the closing head tag: </head>
Your Pinterest generated code needs to go somewhere in between these 2 tags
A few commenters have mentioned the verification only worked for them when they put the code directly below the opening head tag, so be sure to put the Pinterest generated code to right below the opening head tag. (I think it must depend on what other coding "stuff" you have in this area...)
Test your changes to make sure you didn't mess up your blog. To do this, click preview and make sure it loads properly. Then click save template.
Head back over to Pinterest and click the click here button for Pinterest to verify your site.
That is it, if it worked, you are verified! Head back to your main page to check it out!
Since we are on the subject of blog maintenance... Please take a moment and verify that you are not a no-reply blogger. (Can you believe almost half of the commenters below are no-reply?)
Click this link for the tutorial: Check your settings!
Good luck and please remember I am not a professional, so proceed with caution!
If this post helped you, would you give me a +1, pin or a stumble? The quick links are at the bottom of the post...
I would love to have you as a follower! (I made it easy for you...) Just click on one of the icons below to follow along using the Google Friend Connect widget, through a reader, or via email.
Thank you so much for the tutorial! I tried to verify when it first came out, but couldn't do it because I'm also on blogger. I'm so happy you wrote this walk-thru!
ReplyDeleteThanks for this - worked perfectly!
ReplyDeleteGreat tip...I wish I could figure it out in Wordpress! XO, Aimee
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!
ReplyDeleteSuch a helpful tip!! Thanks so much for sharing with us! Gonna go check this out now!
ReplyDeleteawesome! it worked!
ReplyDeleteIt worked! Wahoo! Thank you for sharing your knowledge on this. This is the first I've heard of connecting and verifying your blog with pinterest.
ReplyDeleteWorked without a hitch! Thank you so much!
ReplyDeleteThank you!!! I tried doing this a week or two ago and couldn't. :)

Wow, who knew! Very cool! I'm glad I found this. :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome, thank you!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! I was actually able to do it! Great instructions!!!! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks this is awesome, pinning this!
ReplyDeleteThanks, but it didn't work by me. Might be that I have a much too safe computer who doesn't let me add some gadgets. When I find out why, I'll tell you, promise ;)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Thank you, Thank you! I have been trying to do this for weeks and just gave up. I was praying I wouldn't mess up seeing how I just got a new blog make-over and I had a designer do it!
ReplyDeleteI am having a blog social hop on Saturday and I would love for you to hop over and link up! Stop over and grab a button.
Have a crazy beautiful day!
Thank you! I've been wondering how to do this. I'd love to have you link this us to Titus 2 Tuesday this week on Cornerstone Confessions.. I hope to see you there.
ReplyDeleteKathy
YAY! What a great tutorial! Now I need some instructions for WordPress! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! Worked like a charm. Although I didn't think the ctrl f was working (thought it would appear on the top of my screen) until I figured out it appeared at the bottom of my screen. tricky tricky.
ReplyDeleteLaura... Your email is set to no-reply...
DeleteI'm using Google chrome, what browser are you using. Just curious if different browsers put the search function in different places...
~Jamie
Thanks! I had figured this out on my own and tried it and I got this error message and it won't let me save the changes: More than one widget was found with id: HTML9. Widget IDs should be unique.
ReplyDeleteSo then I followed your instructions step by step and got the same message.
Any tips? Thanks! susie cafescrapper at gmail.com
Susie, I don't know what the problem could be. I seems like you might have some sort of duplicate code in your template. Use the cntrl f function and search the template for portions of your meta tag info. See if there is something similar already there. You can try to submit a pinterest trouble ticket, but they may not help... If you ever figure it out, will you come back and share your results?
Delete~Jamie
BTW, your email settings are set to no-reply....
DeleteTHANK YOU!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the tutorial. I tried it last night and couldn't figure it out, so I am glad I found you. I'll give it try.
ReplyDeletethanks for this tutorial, I'm definitely going to try soon!
ReplyDeleteThis is unbelievably helpful. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI did it! Easy, thanks for the step by step! :)
ReplyDeleteWorked perfectly, although I did find it easier to search the HTML coding plus head than just head. Thanks so much!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh, and pinned.
DeleteYAY!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!! Shared on FB, so glad to finally have someone explain this...codes are NOT my thing ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks for this!
ReplyDeleteI was excited to try this, but got stuck on your instruction "Hit CNRL F and search for head" I don't get anything to search in. :>( Thanks for sharing this with us though. It sounds like it would be very valuable. Linda @www.paperseedlings.com
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteIf you are on a regular pc or laptop using Google chrome or a recent version of windows, if you press the ctrl button at the same time as the f key, a search box should pop up somewhere on your screen. Search for /head and the computer should highlight everywhere the phrase /head appears.
DeleteIf anyone else knows how to explain this, please chime in...
~Jamie
THANK YOU! I've been waiting for this.. {-smile-} Merry Christmas, indeed!
ReplyDeleteIt worked and you're amazing! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip! Your instructions were easy to follow and I'm done! :)
ReplyDeleteKelly
I had to paste the code below "head" but it worked! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThank you, thank you. I had been attempting and failing at this for several days. Your pictures and directions were flawless and now I am verified. Again, I say Thank You!
ReplyDeleteThank you!!
ReplyDeleteGreat tips. I wish I could find a tutorial for Wordpress :-(
ReplyDeleteCan you edit your HTML in wordpress?
DeleteI did it!! Thanks soo much for the tutorial! I had no clue how to verify my Blogger blog. Your instructions were easy to understand and follow. =)
ReplyDelete~ Catie
Thank you so much for this. I've been searching everywhere on how to do this!
ReplyDeleteThanks - It worked Perfectly!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I was going mad the other day trying to figure this out. I'll be sharing your page with my Facebook followers and on Pinterest! Thanks again!
ReplyDeletePS Found you on Nifty Thrift Things
DeleteThanks for the tutorial, it worked! Now I'm trying to figure out if I'm on a "no reply"

ReplyDeleteIt worked! Thanks so much!

ReplyDeleteThank you!!! I have been trying to "verify" for a while now.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I've been wondering how to do this. Worked perfectly. And I love that you included screen shots. Made me more comfortable messing with the code when I could see what it should look like. Thank again!

ReplyDeleteThanks for this great tutorial! The screenshots were a big help. I will be sharing this with my followers.
ReplyDeleteHilda
YAY! Thanks so much. I will share w/ others via Pinterest (of course! LOL) Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for posting this! Incredibly helpful!
ReplyDeleteI found that if you do not own your own domain name however, you cannot at this time verify. Which I personally find to be a bunch of malarkey.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot!! :D
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! The screenshots really helped.
ReplyDeleteWhoohoo!!! That was so easy!!! Thank you so much! I've tried this before and had no idea how to accomplish it. THANKS AGAIN!!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great info Jamie! It's so nice of you to share! :) Happy Holidays to You! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! I will admit, I was a bit nervous with all the warnings and such, but it couldn't have been easier.
ReplyDelete~Amy @ Permanent Kisses
Thank you for this post! I could not figure out how to do it, and when I googled the solution, your blog came up. It worked perfectly!
ReplyDeleteThanks much! This was a great help and a great post... :))
ReplyDeleteGreat tutorial! I was trying to figure this out earlier this week. Thank you for your post!
ReplyDeleteThank you for this! I tried to verify a few weeks ago, and couldn't because I'm on blogger, so Thank you! Also, I don't know what happened with the no-reply blogger thing, but I wasn't a no reply blogger, and recently a friend told me that I was. Blogger changed it on me. It is fixed now, but I think people don't realize that they are no reply bloggers, because they once weren't. :) Pinning this post, have a great day!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I couldn't figure this out!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, I tried to do this the other day unsuccessfully, You Rock :)
ReplyDeleteThank you!!! This is awesome. First time visiting- Nancy~
ReplyDeleteFeel free to link on my blog- http://atozebracelebrations.com/2012/12/link-party.html
Thanks a million! I did it and couldn't have done it without you!!
ReplyDeleteI have to figure out how to do this with Wordpress! I've seen them asking but don't know where to add. Thanks for keeping us in your prayers about Bo, some day's we think this is the "day", and then he perks up the next. For the last two days he's been taking short walks, like 4 houses up and back. It's like being on a roller coaster. Thanks for always sharing your creative inspiration with Sunday's Best!
ReplyDeletethank you so much! it worked smoothly :D
ReplyDeleteYou are amazing!! Took me maybe 2 minutes & I'm now verified! Thank you so much!! Definitely will be sharing this post! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you - did both of my blogs. Very much appreciated your post. Came over from Brenda's Cozy Inspiration.
ReplyDeleteJoy
THANKS!!! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you!
ReplyDeleteYay! Thank you, thank you!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks...I didn't even know what that meant until I saw your post...I'm a blogger and it worked great! Everyone's gonna think I really know what I'm doing...it'll just be our secret! Thanks for the link!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for this - I had no idea that was how to do it for Blogger (would be nice if they actually told people who don't know much about coding that!). Got all verified now! Thanks for linking this to Craftastic Monday at Sew Can Do:)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I've been wanting to do this but didn't know how!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! I would never have figured this out on my own! I am a new follower!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for this!!!
ReplyDeletewould love it if you could share this on my link party @ www.serenityyou.com

Yay! Thanks for sharing. I didn't know how to do this in Blogger, and this worked perfectly!
ReplyDeleteWonderfully explicit directions, and so easy to follow. Thanks for the tutorial, I've been looking at that Pinterest verification button and trying to figure out what they were talking about since it first showed up.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately I can't verify my blog, even though I own the domain, it keeps telling me that it's a 404 error and the server can't find my blog, but I will keep trying, after they let me back in again, lol.

ReplyDeleteThank you very very much! I've pinned and tweeted your post. I will also follow you on Facebook and share there as well. You rock!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for this post. I was trying to do this the other day and out of the blue my mom sends me a facebook link and that's how I found this!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much -- I never in a million years would have figured that out my own! I appreciate it!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the tutorial! You did a fabulous job making it concise, user-friendly, and very helpful!

ReplyDeleteHi, thank you, its works.. i follow you on pinterest! =)
ReplyDeleteamalzahrah.blogspot.com
This was wonderful - clear, easy-to-follow, a great tutorial. Thank you so much!
ReplyDeletebtw, I believe I AM a nofollow blogger because I have Google+ linked to my profile. I've yet to find a way to keep G+ and get rid of the nofollow. But then, until 5 minutes ago, I didn't think I could verify a Blogger blog on Pinterest either!
Thanks again!
I wondered why there seemed to be such a big increase in the no-reply commenters, it must be google plus.

ReplyDeleteThanks a bunch for posting this information. Super helpful!!
ReplyDeleteHey Jamie-
ReplyDeleteGreat instructions aka tut. I did everything you suggested following each step, however, I cannot find the head part of the code to install the Verify Website code. Can you please PLEASE help me. I so don't want to screw it up. HA! I would so appreciate it.
jenglamgirl@gmail.com
Thanks a bunch, jen
Hi, once you have gone into the html and checked the expanded widgets button, if you are on a laptop or regular pc, you should be able to press the control key and the f key at the same time and a search box will pop up. type in the word head and the computer should find 2 of them. Place your pinterest generated code between the 2. I put mine right above the closing head tag: /head. but someone else said it worked for them when they put it right after the opening head tag head.
DeleteGood Luck,
Jamie
Worked, Thanks. It kind of had me confused for a minute but I figured it out.
ReplyDeleteThis did not work for me... I get the 404 as well. I did what another commenter did and tried after the close-head but that did not work either.
ReplyDeleteI am wondering if it is because of what all is in my header?
I'm going to try a couple more sensible placements and see if I can get it to work....
Okay!!! I tried the 'common sense' idea and it worked!!...
I just wanted to share all of this since it can be different for different people. Luckily for me, I found another meta tag, and it was miiiiiiiiiiiiles above the close/head I just added this meta tag underneath the other meta tag. I'm verified! Thank you!!
This was SO helpful to me, thank you ! I will pin it and follow you on Pinterest as well. It felt great to follow the steps and have success with verifying my website. Thanks a lot.
ReplyDeleteThank you!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!!! Just completed and just started following:)

ReplyDeleteI actually found this on Pinterest and had no idea we could even do this, lol! Thanks for the tutorial, it worked perfectly :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! I could not figure this out! xoxoxo
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU! So frustrated I couldn't verify... I knew there had to be a way for blogs :)
ReplyDeleteThank you thank you thank you!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for this tutorial - it worked perfectly! Do you know how I can disconnet the Facebook icon that is next to my web link on my Pinterest page? It goes to my personal FB page and I would rather it not. Thanks again!!
ReplyDeleteIf you look under settings on your Pinterest account and click on “log in w/ Facebook” under social networks, it will give you the option to disconnect your Facebook account. After you disconnect the wrong account you can re-ad the correct one. (I just realized my personal facebook account was still connected, so I am so glad you asked this question. I updated my facebook/ Pinterest account too.)
DeleteGood luck,
~Jamie
YES! You are amazing - thank you so much!!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I have tried several other tutorials without luck. I tried yours and immediately worked. Ahhh! Sharing this with all other bloggers I know! xo, Jenny
ReplyDeleteThis worked and was very easy to follow. Thank you,
ReplyDeleteawesome tutorial & it worked great! Thanks so much! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, it worked perfect.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! i will repin :)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for this - I have tried and failed to manage this before :)
ReplyDeleteOn the subject of No-Reply bloggers I have found that because I have my Google + profile attached to my blog blogger seems to switch me to a no-reply blogger every once in a while for no discernable reason. Then I have to go back and fix it again - grr!
Sarah @ A Cat-Like Curiosity
Great, thanks so much! can we remove the code after it's verified?
ReplyDeleteHmm, I have no idea... If you try it, will you come back and let us know if it worked?
Delete~Jamie
Thank you! I just did it and it worked beautifully! :)
ReplyDelete-Meesh :)
Thank you! Hadn't even thought about doing this before I saw this. Too easy to pass up. Thanks again!
ReplyDeleteThank you for this
ReplyDeleteI am going to feel like a total dumb-dumb when I post this...but what is the purpose in verifying a blog? I was going to complete this but it linked my blog to my Pinterest and I did not want to do that because my Pinterest is for personal use and not for the blog!
ReplyDeleteThanks for any help :D
It's just a matter of personal preference. If you'd like to drive a bit more traffic to your blog, it can't hurt to have the link on Pinterest.
DeleteI agree w/ Michele, it's really just for Brand/name recognition. It might bring a little more traffic over and help with SEO.
DeleteThanks for stopping by!
~Jamie
Sweet! Worked perfectly. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteThanks! It only worked for me when I put the pinterest code directly under the < head > code.
ReplyDeleteJust found you on Pinterest and this worked perfectly for me! Thank you so much. I put it directly under the < head > code and all looks well!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for this!! So much easier when it has been explained so thoroughly :)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! It was so easy once I had someone explaining it like you did! lol
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! I am so appreciative of this post. Thank you very much for posting this.

TIPS: Teach, Inspire, and Prepare Students
This worked perfectly thanks. I took the easy option and put it just below the header and had no touble. Thanks for taking the time to write this post.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for this post! I was getting so frustrated trying to verify! I placed mine just before the closing head and it worked. Would not work just after the opening.
ReplyDeleteI am glad it worked for you! It is so weird how it works in different positions for different people in the head tag. If anybody knows why this is, feel free to chime in on the comments!
Delete~Jamie
cool. thx! it's works great!
ReplyDeleteBTW, do you remove the Meta tag after you are verified?
ReplyDeleteThank you for this post! However, it took a while to find out how to verify on Wordpress. Go to "Tools" then "Available Tools". Pinterest verification is the last thing on the page!
ReplyDeleteThankyou, it worked a treat first time with verifying my blogger blog to Pinterest, I put the line of code directly under the opening 'head' Yay!!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I just did it! I feel so legit!
ReplyDeleteOh.my.goodness.... a BIG Thank You!! I attempted to do this when it first came out and gave up... I'm thrilled I found your post and was able to cross this puppy right off my "to do" list! Thanks again!!
ReplyDeleteseriously thank you. i've tried so many different ways and your post is the ONLY solution that has worked.
ReplyDeleteI thought I would never see the day I'd be able to verify my blogger blog! Thank you! Great and simple to follow tutorial. Keep it up!
ReplyDeleteWorked like a charm! Thanks a bunch :)

ReplyDeleteThank you for this fantastic and helpful tutorial. I could not have done it without you!
ReplyDeleteI appreciate all your hard work in putting this together!
Thank you, thank you!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhen I click HTML....it doesn't come up with peoceed. I only see Close, clear edit, preview and save only. I am sorry, please help. Thank you again for all the effort to shae with us.
ReplyDeleteIt is hard to know where you are in the process without seeing your screen, but it sounds like you are in the HTML editing mode. Be very careful with what you are doing here. I am no pro and can't help you if something happens.
DeleteTry to find the "head" tag and paste in your pinterest generated code. Click preview, your blog will load in the preview mode so you can verify it loads properly. If it doesn't, exit out with out making changes, if it does load properly, save your changes and then go back to pinterest and try to verify your site.
Good luck~!
