Google Apps HTML or CNAME verification

Google Apps now has two ways to verify your domain ownership.

You can either upload an HTML file with a ID specified by Google, or you can change the CNAME record for your domain using a SUBdomain specified by Google.

HTML

1. Create a HTML verification file named "googlehostedservice.html" ,
2. Copy the ID (googleAAAABBBBCCCCDDDD) into it, and upload it to http://your.domain/ .      
3. Once you have made the changes, make sure you can see the file at http://your.domain/googlehostedservice.html.

CNAME

1. Sign in to your Domain Hosting Service and locate the DNS management page.
2. Use the SUBdomain to create a new CNAME record: googleAAAABBBBCCCCDDDD.your.domain
3. And point the CNAME record to:google.com
