Learning How to Create a Custom Google Map from Scratch

In this article, we'll take you through the process of creating and customizing your own Google Maps. To get started, head over to the Google My Business page (https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=1xD4_QEfWJXnyxBsnkmx1-7W-tDaCV6wO) and click on the "Google My Business" tab.

Step 1: Sign In to Google My Business

To create a custom map, you'll need to sign in to your Google My Business account. Click on the "Sign in" button at the top right corner of the page and enter your email address and password.

Step 2: Select Your Map Type

Once signed in, click on the "Map settings" dropdown menu (three dots) next to your account name. From here, select the type of map you want to create (e.g., business location or venue). This will determine the layout and design of your custom map.

Step 3: Choose Your Map Style

Next, click on the "Map style" dropdown menu next to your account name. From here, select the map style you want to use (e.g., satellite, street view, or terrain). This will determine the appearance of your custom map.

Step 4: Add Your Business Information

Now it's time to add your business information to the map. Click on the "Business info" dropdown menu next to your account name and select the type of business you have (e.g., restaurant, store, or event venue). Enter any additional details you'd like to include.

Step 5: Customize Your Map

Finally, customize your map by adding markers, overlays, and other features as desired. Use the "Add marker" button to place custom markers on the map, or use the "Overlay" feature to add additional information such as hours of operation or reviews.
