During account setup, I selected the .xml validation option. However, tools gave me the meta tag information on the next screen. I am now unable to find information on how to do .xml validation. Appreciate any pointers on what content should go into this file. Thanks.
If you used Meta tag authorization the first time and want to use the XML file, you must first delete your site from the tools and then add your site again selecting the XML validation radio button. Notice that this will not in any way affect your ranking or indexing.
