Question

In the following code:

 <meta name="verify-v1" content="bGDK2jk+Vhn+Kk2NrZFue5EbYn1Fed4v/Ej+U2bg7wc=">

what is 'verify-v1' and its associated content?

I have seen this code a few times in my program but couldn't understand what its for.

Answer 1

What is it?

The “verify-v1 metatag” is special metatag from Google. It can provide you with comprehensive statistics and error information about the pages in your site. You can either add the “verify-v1 metatag” to your web page or upload a HTML File. I have found that simply adding the “verify-v1 metatag” is easiest.
