Add your site to each of the above and proceed with the verification process. The verification is to prove that you are the owner or have access to your web site domain account.

Once you have verified your status, you may proceed to submit your sitemap file which you have created and placed in your web site. After that sit back and relax and wait for Google’s spiders to index your web site.
