Once you set up a site on HelloBox, we recommend that you add it to Google Search Console (previously known as Google Webmaster Tool), which will help your site to be indexed by Google and track how it performs from SEO perspective.

When you add your site to Google Search Console, you will need to verify the ownership of the site. There are two options (shown below).

If you are using your own domain for your HelloBox site, have a control over your domain's DNS settings and would like to track the entire domain via Google Search Console, we suggest you select the Domain option. On the other hand, if you are using a default HelloBox sub-domain or want to track your site separately via specific URL, you can select the URL prefix option.

In the Enter URL text field, type in the full URL (including the protocol - http or https) and click Continue. In the next screen, you will be presented with several options. Click on the HTML tag option (shown below) and copy the meta tag.

In the Analytics settings for your site at HelloBox, paste the meta tag value to Google Search Console verification meta tag field and save.

Back in the Google Search Console screen, click on Verify. That completes the integration with Google Search Console.
