No.  Search Console (GSC) only works for domains you own.  So your domain name that you registered and own, can go into GSC.  Active Rain cannot.

I'm not sure where you would put the metatag needed anymore. It used to be in the sidebar but that no longer works for years now.

I think you should contact Support direct or hopefully they will see this & give us all a great answer.

You can only verify a website you have control over.

You do not have to do anything for your blog posts to be indexed by Google, they will be found and indexed eventually. But, if the blog post is a duplicate of another one, it may not be ever indexed.

If you want to accelerate the process, link to them from an external website, or even from some of your other AR posts that are indexed already.

Your "iBuyers in the 2019 Charlotte Real Estate Market?" blog post is indexed.

NO.  GSC will only work for the domain you own and verified. It won't work with other posts you write on other sites. If you have another site, you can get GSC installed on there as long as you can verify it.

That aside, you can ping articles that aren't on your site.  But, for AR it isn't needed as it usually gets crawled within an hour.

I don't know the answer to this one but you can do a free Google Business page and list your blog as your website or build a free website there and direct people to your blog. I get a heck of a lot more business from my Google Business page then I got out of 20 years of professional web pages that cost me a fortune Mike Easton

Only with the sites you own ... not AR. 

Google will index - it is a matter of time.

NO! You don't own it so, you can't submit to GC. 

AR indexing is running VERY slow right now and I've had many recently AR posts that are still not indexed at all.
