Verify your domain with email, DNS or meta tag

The quickest method. It works when your email is on the domain or a subdomain of it, e.g. name@yourcompany.com for yourcompany.com.

1. 1Enter your work email in step 1.
2. 2Enter the 6-digit code from the email.
3. 3If the code matches, the domain is verified straight away.

If the email is on another domain, e.g. a Gmail address, the code only logs you in. You then verify with DNS or a meta tag afterwards.

1. 1Choose DNS record.
2. 2Log in to your domain provider, and create a record of type TXT on the domain itself. The name is shown as @ for an ordinary domain.
3. 3Choose Copy next to the value, and paste it in. It starts with trustsays-verification=.
4. 4Choose Check now.

1. 1Choose Meta tag, and choose Copy.
2. 2Paste the tag into the head section of your website's homepage. The tag has the name trustsays-verification and your code as its content.
3. 3Publish the page, and choose Check now.

We fetch the homepage on https:// and your domain. Once the profile has been claimed, you're welcome to remove the record or tag again.

• A new DNS record can take up to 24 hours before it works. Try again later.
• Check that the whole value has been copied, without spaces or quotation marks at the start and end.
• The record must be on the domain itself, not on www or another subdomain.
• The code belongs to the person who is logged in. If you switch person, the record or tag must be updated with the new code.
• The meta tag: the homepage must respond directly on https:// and the domain without www. We don't follow redirects, so if the homepage redirects to www, we won't find the tag. Use the DNS record instead.
• The tag must be in the head section, not in the body.
• If you've tried many times in a row, wait an hour and try again.
