 * Hi, I am wanting to get started with google webmaster tools but to verify I own
   the domain it’s asking me to up load a code to the domain; but I have WordPress
   hosted on Dreamhost and only operate WordPress from the dashboard through wp-
   admin. So I’m not using an FTP programme from my desktop comp to upload anything
   but pictures through the browser.
 * How would I go about uploading this html google verification code. Thanks – Martin
 * Instructions:
 * 1. Download this HTML verification file. [googleb320bcffae1068d1.html]
 * 2. Upload the file to [http://www.dealing-with-separation.com/](http://www.dealing-with-separation.com/)
 * 3. Confirm successful upload by visiting [http://www.dealing-with-separation.com/googleb320bcffae1068d1.html](http://www.dealing-with-separation.com/googleb320bcffae1068d1.html)
   in your browser.
 * 4. Click Verify below.
 * To stay verified, don’t remove the HTML file, even after verification succeeds.
