Changes to website verification in Webmaster Tools

如果您使用过
Google
网站站长工具
，相信您对验证您网站所有权
的过程
已经很熟悉了。只要简单地在您的网站添加一个特定的元标记或者文件，点击一个按钮，您就成为一名已经验证过网站所有权的站长了。最近我们对这一验证过程做了一些小的改进，希望能让它变得更加便捷可靠。
第一项变化是
针对元标记验证的方法
。在
过去，您的验证元标记一定程度上基于您
Google
账户的
Email
地址。这意味着如果您更改账户信息中的
Email
地址，您的元标记也将改变（而且对于使用旧标记的那些站点，您的身份验证将失效）。我们开发了新版本的元标记验证方法，将不再同您的
Email
地址相关联。一旦您通过一个新的元标记完成验证，就再也不会因为修改
Email
地址而导致验证失效了。
我们同样改进了使用
HTML
文件的验证方法。之前，如果您的站点对于不存在的
URLs
返回的
HTTP
状态代码不是
404
的话，您将无法使用
HTML
文件验证的方法。一个严格调试的
Web
服务器会对不存在的
URLs
返回
404
代码，但我们发现很多站点难以满足这一要求。我们已经简化了文件验证方法，不再需要检查不存在的
URLs
的返回代码。现在您只需下载我们提供的
HTML
文件，无需修改就可直接上传到您的站点。我们将检查文件的内容，如果正确，您的验证就成功了。
我们希望这些变化会使验证过程
变得更令人愉快一些
。如果您已经使用旧的方法验证过了，不用担心，您当
前的验证会继续有效
。这些变化只会影响新的验证。
某些帮助您添加元标记或
HTML
文件来完成所有权验证的网站及软件，或许需要更新才能适用新的验证方法。例如，
Google Sites
目前无法正确处理新的元标记验证方法。我们已经了解到这一问题并在尽可能快地解决。如果您发现其他服务有类似问题，请配合相关维护人员一道解决这些问题。对于这一问题带来的任何不便，我们深表歉意。
以上只是我们正在推进中的网站验证方面的几项改进中的一项。在此
向您提前介绍一些将来会发生的变化
，在未来的更新中，我们将会针对某一站点有多名验证站长的情况，将所有已验证站长的
Email
地址向其他已验证站长公开。我们希望这项改进可以使多站长的网站管理起来更容易。如果您不希望正在使用的
Email
地址被其他站长知道，那么现在正是您做更改
的好时机！

Simply add a specific `meta` tag\nor file to your site, click a button, and you're a verified owner. We've recently made a few small\nimprovements to the process that we think will make it easier and more reliable for you.\n\n\nThe first change is an improvement to the `meta` tag verification method. In the past, your\nverification `meta` tag was partially based on the email address of your Google Account. That meant\nthat if you changed the email address in your account settings, your `meta` tags would also change\n(and you'd become unverified for any sites you had used the old tag on). We've created a new\nversion of the verification `meta` tag which is unrelated to your email address. Once you verify\nwith a new `meta` tag, you'll never become unverified by changing your email address.\n\n\nWe've also revamped the way we do verification by HTML file. Previously, if your website returned\nan HTTP status code other than `404` for non-existent URLs, you would be unable to use\nthe file verification method. A properly configured web server will return `404` for\nnon-existent URLs, but it turns out that a lot of sites have problems with this requirement. We've\nsimplified the file verification process to eliminate the checks for non-existent URLs. Now, you\njust download the HTML file we provide and upload it to your site without modification. We'll\ncheck the contents of the file, and if they're correct, you're done.\n\n\nWe hope these changes will make verification a little bit more pleasant. If you've already\nverified using the old methods, don't worry! Your existing verifications will continue to work.\nThese changes only affect new verifications.\n\n\nSome websites and software have features that help you verify ownership by adding the `meta` tag or\nfile for you. They may need to be updated to work with the new methods. For example,\n[Google Sites](https://sites.google.com/)\ndoesn't currently handle the new `meta` tag verification method correctly. We're aware of that\nproblem and are working to fix it as soon as we can. If you discover other services that have\nsimilar problems, please work with their maintainer to resolve the issue. We're sorry if this\ncauses any inconvenience.\n\n\nThis is just the first of several improvements we're working on for website verification. To give\nyou a heads up, in a future update, we'll begin showing the email addresses of all verified owners\nof a given site to the other verified owners of that site. We think this will make it much easier\nto manage sites with multiple verified owners. However, if you're using an email address you\nwouldn't want the other owners of your site to see, now might be a good time to change it!\n\nPosted by Sean Harding, Software Engineer"]]
