Firstly you will need to signup for a Google Webmaster Tools account:
1. Choose create account.
2. Fill out required info.
3. Confirm the account.
4. Click "Add a Site" to bring up an input box.
5. Type your website address into the box and click "Continue"
6. You will then be asked to verify that you own the site. To do this, make sure "Meta Tag" is selected from the drop down box (it should be by default). A meta code will be displayed and you will need to highlight and copy the unique reference. The unique reference should look something like
