**Creating a Custom Map on Google My Maps using a User-Provided Location**
Are you tired of using the default maps provided by Google? Do you need to create a custom map that shows your specific location or business? Look no further! In this article, we will show you how to create a custom map on Google My Maps using a user-provided location.
To start, you'll need to create an account on Google My Maps and link it to a Google account. Once linked, you can create a new map by clicking on the "Create" button in the top right corner of the screen. From there, click on the "Add map" button and select "Custom map." This will give you a blank canvas where you can draw your custom map.
To add a location to your map, click on the "+" icon at the bottom left corner of the map and select "Add marker." This will allow you to create a new marker that represents your specific location. To set the marker's position, simply drag it around on the map until it is in the desired location.
Once you have added all the markers you need, you can customize their appearance by clicking on the three dots at the top right corner of each marker and selecting "Edit." From here, you can change the marker's color, label, and other attributes. You can also add a custom image to the marker if needed.
To save your map, click on the "File" menu in the top left corner of the screen and select "Save as new map." This will give you a link to view or edit your map online using Google My Maps viewer (https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=1qEAdA3rqfA-vS246eXE9--UJYSB7xxxk). By following these steps, you can create a custom map on Google My Maps using a user-provided location and share it with others.
