This tutorial walks through the start of Housing Market Publisher: create your account with your Housing Market email, confirm it with the verification link we email you (there is no code to type), accept the publisher terms, add your website, and prove that it is yours in one of three ways: a DNS TXT record, a meta tag or a small text file. You then send the site for review, and the Housing Market team approves it before any ad is shown. The screens in this video are illustrations with example data, not a real account.

In this tutorial you will learn

  • How to sign up and confirm your email with the verification link
  • How to add your website and choose its category and country
  • The three ways to prove you own the site: DNS record, meta tag or file
  • What happens when you send the site for review
