This article covers how to add a new property (website) to the Google Search Console (Webmaster Tools).
HTTP VS. HTTPS
Google Search Console (Webmaster Tools) treats HTTP and HTTPS as separate sites.
http://www.example.com is considered a different URL from
https://www.example.com because it may validly serve different content.
When adding a new property, don't forget to add both HTTP and HTTPS (if
your server is configured for HTTPS).
WWW VS. NON-WWW
Similarly, don't forget to add both WWW and NON-WWW version of your
website.
Later, you can set in the settings wheter WWW or NON-WWW is prefered.
HTTP + HTTPS + WWW + NON-WWW Together
So in the end, you will have four (4) sites (properties).
http://www.example.com
https://www.example.com
http://example.com
https://example.com
Don't forget to submit the sitemap(s) for all properties.
Happy coding.
