Pinterest Verification

Lots of you have been asking about website verification for Pinterest -- the process that tells Pinterest that you own the website listed in your profile. Once your site is verified, your blog's URL appears on your profile and in search results alongside the nifty little "Verified!" checkmark.

We've now added Pinterest to the list of webmaster tools we support. Verifying your blog with Pinterest is as easy as cutting and pasting a single line of code and hitting "save." Note: Currently, Pinterest only supports the verification of top-level domains, so you'll need a custom domain to be able to verify; blogs with a wordpress.com domain aren't eligible.

(There I am, all verified. Don't I look like a power user?)

If the idea of having to deal with code makes your nervous, don't worry; our simple instructions tell you exactly what to put where. In less than a minute, you can have a checkmark of your very own, letting your followers know that you're a trusted source of finding awesome stuff on the internet.
