Adding Google Maps

A Google Map is a great way to point out the location of your business or of an event.  You can add one easily in Yola!

Here's how to add a Google Map to your page:

1. Open the "Maps" folder in the Sidebar to the right of your screen.

2. Drag and drop the Google Map Widget onto your page.

2. Enter your address in the "Search" bar when the Google Map dialog box pops up.  The dialog box also allows you to set the size and zoom of the map. To adjust the width, height and padding click on the "settings" tab. You can select whether you want it to display as a map, satellite image or a hybrid of the two.
3. Click on "Save" in the bottom right hand corner of the box.

The map will then be embedded in your page.

If you would like the ability to include directions with your Google Map, please follow these steps:

1. Go to Google Maps.
2. Enter your address in the box provided and hit enter.
3. On the far right side of your map, click on "Link".
4. Under "Paste HTML to embed in website" - copy the code provided.
5. In the Yola Sitebuilder, drag and drop an HTML Widget onto the page and paste in the code.
6. Save and republish your site.
