The Google verification file(s) are on the site for two reasons;

1. Access to Sugar Labs content over Google web (Knowledge Graph)

2. Improving SEO

Who have access to this files?

1. Samson Goddy
2. Dave Crossland

Why do we need this file;
1. To better solve 1 and 2 which seems to be Sugar Labs problem on the web
search. Do we have the right? it depends of what angle the question is
coming from. But Dave and I are working on the marketing team. Is it
removable? yes, I can easily take it off. Would it affect Sugar Labs? maybe.

So why use this tools? why do we have facebook for marketing ? why use
github instead of Gitlab?

The questions is what is our target audience? where are they coming from?
hat do they like? Do we ever what to approach them? Can we do without these
tools?


Do you have better alternative to Facebook? Google Analytics? an better
"open source" way to boost SEO?

All these questions are open to the community.
