How to put a label on the google map

Method 1: Select Place

If you need to select any place on Google maps and set the label, you can use standard tools available to each user. For these purposes, the official website and mobile application will equally suit, and at the same time the installed mark may well be sent to another user regardless of the platform used.

Option 1: Website

1. When using the web version of Google Maps, open the online service page and find the right place. To select, click on the left mouse button and confirm the setting of the label by clicking on the link with the coordinates in the pop-up hint at the bottom of the browser window.



2. As a result, a label and a card appear on the map with a description of the nearest significant places, including the photo, the data on the region and the coordinate themselves. In addition, the scale will automatically be configured.

   

   If necessary, using a block on the left side of the window, you can save a point in the account bookmarks, go to the route laying or adding a missing place. You can also use the "Send to your phone" or "Share" button to send information about the label to another user.



3. When the "Share" pop-up window appears, use the "Copy Link" button to save the data to the clipboard and subsequently send the user to the desired. You can also automatically publish through some social networks.



4. The created label can be integrated into your own website, using the "Embedding Card" tab by copying the code using the "Copy HTML" link and adding the received frame to the desired location. However, you do not have the values ​​and other available settings.

   

   After embedding, the miniature version will be equally displayed for each user, providing some standard features of the Web Service.



5. Separately, we note that you can share the label in another way, simply by copying the URL from the browser's address bar and sending it to the right place.

Option 2: Mobile application

1. The official MAPS mobile client for Android and iOS also allows you to set tags using standard tools. For these purposes, open the program, simply tap the desired point and hold for a few seconds before the marker appears.



2. After that, information about the selected location will appear at the bottom of the screen. If you want to send a label position data, use the Share button by selecting one of the available options.

   

   If necessary, you can easily touch the line with the coordinates to go to detailed information. Due to this, you can get much more data or perform some special actions like creating labels.

And although we will not consider the mobile version of the online service of Google Maps, it is worthwhile that this option also provides the ability to install the tag. For the most part, in this case, the instruction will be a similar website.

Method 2: Adding an organization

Google maps allow you to put not only temporary tags available exclusively by reference or by HTML code, but also add space on an ongoing basis. It can be useful if you are the owner of any company and want to simplify the search for the office for customers, referring to the place and specifying other data. In more detail, the process of adding the label was described separately.
