00:00:01,768 --> 00:00:04,270
Adding Google Maps
2
00:00:05,872 --> 00:00:07,640
Adding a Google Maps to your web site
3
00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:09,142
is an easy way to show visitors
4
00:00:09,142 --> 00:00:11,144
the locations of your business or event
5
00:00:11,144 --> 00:00:12,946
and help them get directions.
6
00:00:15,015 --> 00:00:16,950
The first thing to do is to select the page
7
00:00:16,950 --> 00:00:19,152
where you want the map to appear.
8
00:00:19,252 --> 00:00:21,087
Then click "Widgets"
9
00:00:21,087 --> 00:00:24,024
and drag the "Google Maps" widget to your page.
10
00:00:24,624 --> 00:00:26,760
If your Mac is connected to the internet
11
00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:28,628
you'll see a map load on your page
12
00:00:28,628 --> 00:00:31,631
so you can get an idea of what
would look like to your visitor.
13
00:00:32,565 --> 00:00:34,134
If you wanna resize the map
14
00:00:34,134 --> 00:00:35,735
just drag the corners,
15
00:00:36,669 --> 00:00:39,973
or drag the middle to move it to a new spy.
16
00:00:41,574 --> 00:00:45,612
Now enter the address you want
the map show in the address field.
17
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:50,316
Then check the buttons for
the tools you wanna show.
18
00:00:50,316 --> 00:00:52,152
You can show "Zoom Controls",
19
00:00:52,152 --> 00:00:53,620
the "Address Bubble",
20
00:00:53,620 --> 00:00:54,921
or the "Search Bar".
21
00:00:56,122 --> 00:00:57,323
When you click "Apply",
22
00:00:57,323 --> 00:00:59,359
the map updates to show the new location.
23
00:01:00,660 --> 00:01:03,096
To make it easier for visitors to find you,
24
00:01:03,096 --> 00:01:05,832
you can customize the map
by dragging it around,
25
00:01:06,433 --> 00:01:08,835
or zooming in or out.
26
00:01:09,436 --> 00:01:11,571
So now visitors can see more of the freeway
27
00:01:11,571 --> 00:01:14,140
along with the nearest off ramp.
28
00:01:14,641 --> 00:01:16,843
When you've done click outside the map
29
00:01:16,843 --> 00:01:20,013
to preview what your visitors would
see when they go to your site.
