Adding (verifying) your Drupal site to Google's Webmaster Tools

Searched words: 
google webmastertools Drupal webmaster tools

I don't see an API for your entire Google account coming soon, or Google should already be able to skip the verification step for sites using Google analytics.

So the easiest way is to make a new node or create a new path alias to an existing page with the path that google wants: googleed909f3ff5bcb87e.html in this case.

And delete it afterward.

Is this the easiest way?

I have been looking for a solution for this, and so far I've found two other ways to do it.

It seems to me that I can add the verification code as a meta tag or download an html file (and then visit the html file).
