How to verify your domain in Google Search Console

Websites2 min read

Google Search Console shows how your site appears in Google Search: which queries bring visitors, which pages are indexed, and any errors to fix.

Domain property verification (recommended)

A domain property covers all versions of your site (with and without www, http and https, and subdomains).

  1. Go to Google Search Console and choose Add property → Domain.
  2. Enter your domain without https or www, for example vexlari.tech.
  3. Google gives you a TXT record.
  4. Add the TXT record in your domain's DNS settings, wherever your DNS is managed.
  5. Return to Search Console and click Verify. DNS changes can take time to propagate; if it fails, try again later.

First things to do after verifying

  • Submit your sitemap, usually at /sitemap.xml.
  • Check Pages for indexing issues.
  • Check Core Web Vitals and HTTPS reports.
  • Add team members with the right permission level.

Check weekly

  • Performance: queries, clicks, impressions and average position.
  • New indexing issues or manual actions.

Search Console data is the most direct way to see which topics bring organic leads, and which pages to improve next.
