Google Maps provides a feature that allows you to create a map with multiple markers, each representing a specific location. This can be particularly handy for displaying business locations, event venues, or any other points of interest, all on one map.
1: Go to Google Maps and make sure you are signed into your Gmail/Google Account. You should be able to see your profile icon in the top right when you have done this.
If you do not have a Google Account, please follow the link here.
2: Click "Saved" in the left sidebar.
3: Click on the "Maps" tab.
4: Navigate to the bottom of the "Maps" tab and click on "CREATE MAP".

7: Click "+ Add to map".
8: Press the styles icon to edit the location icon.
9: Here you can change the icon shape and colour, or even upload your own custom icon.
10: Repeat steps 6 through 9 to add more locations, then click "+ Share" once you are happy with your map.
11: Here you can give your map a name and a short description.
12: Make sure you have all the blue toggles switched on, then click the blue "Close" button.
