Domain property verification

The screenshot shows that you're trying to add a **Domain property** for `danielkliewer.com`, not a URL-prefix property. This is a different verification method than the HTML file you were working with earlier. Here's what's happening: - ✅ **URL prefix property** (`https://www.danielkliewer.com`) - Can be verified with an HTML file, meta tag, or other methods. - This is what `googlee01d15003dd97b2b.html` was for. - ✅ **Domain property** (`danielkliewer.com`) - **Only** supports DNS TXT verification. - The HTML file is ignored. Since this dialog says **"Verify domain ownership via DNS record"**, Google is expecting you to add a TXT record at your DNS provider. ### If your domain is on Squarespace 1. Copy the TXT value shown: ``` google-site-verification=7zX7-LfIDlJVxHDukKCcz2Dlf4h3aFyRllie9LjWI... ``` 2. Go to: **Squarespace → Settings → Domains → danielkliewer.com → DNS Settings** 3. Add a new **TXT** record: - **Host/Name:** `@` - **Value:** the entire `google-site-verification=...` string - TTL: Default 4. Save. 5. Wait a few minutes (sometimes up to several hours). 6. Click **Verify**. --- ### If you already verified with the HTML file Then you don't actually need the Domain property unless you specifically want one. You can instead add: ``` https://www.danielkliewer.com ``` as a **URL prefix property**, and it should verify immediately using the HTML verification file that's already deployed. --- One thing I'm curious about: **who is your DNS provider?** - Squarespace - Cloudflare - Namecheap - GoDaddy - Vercel DNS - Something else If you tell me where `danielkliewer.com`'s DNS is hosted, I can give you the exact steps.
