Roadmap & Resources

Check the Website & Current Location Details

Review Existing Location Info

Before adding a map, inspect the website and check whether location information already exists.

Business Location Audit

Identifies the framework, every place the business address currently appears, any existing map or Directions button, business hours and nearby contact details, and whether a suitable section for a map already exists — also flags inconsistent addresses, outdated details, broken map links, placeholder addresses, hard-coded coordinates, or an unnecessary Maps API integration — changes nothing, and reports the best existing place for the map plus anything to fix first.

Review this website specifically for adding the business location and Google Maps correctly. Do not change anything yet. Identify: - the framework and project type - every location where the business address currently appears - any existing Google Maps embed - any map or location component - contact page - footer location information - business hours if present - phone and contact details near the address - any "Directions", "Visit Us", or similar buttons - whether the existing layout already has a suitable place for a map Also check whether the website currently contains: - inconsistent addresses - outdated location details - broken map links - placeholder addresses - hard-coded map coordinates - an unnecessary Google Maps API integration Do not change anything. Finish with: 1. where the business location currently appears 2. whether a map already exists 3. the best existing section/page for the map 4. anything that should be corrected before adding it

Confirm the Correct Location

Use the exact business address customers should visit.

Example

123 Main Street, Miami, FL 33101

Make sure the same address is used consistently across the website.

IMPORTANT

If the business serves customers at their location rather than receiving visitors — for example, some cleaners, landscapers, or mobile services — do not publish a private home address just to add a map. Show the service area instead of a precise location.

Get the Correct Google Maps Location

Verify the Listing in Google Maps

Open Google Maps and search for the business. If the business already has a Google Business Profile, select the correct listing. Otherwise, search for the exact address.

Google Maps

Search for the business or its exact address.

https://www.google.com/maps

The business name is correct

The address is correct

The map pin is in the right place

The city is correct

The surrounding area looks right

Make sure you are embedding the correct location before adding anything to the website.

Get the Map Embed & Directions Link

Use Google Maps' sharing/embed option to get the map embed for the location.

Google Maps Share Embed a map

Get the embed code

For a simple business website, an embedded Google Map is usually enough.

NOTE

You do not need to create a Google Maps API integration just to display one business location.

It is also useful to provide a separate "Get Directions" button, so visitors can open the location directly in Google Maps.

Keep both ready:

- Google Maps embed

- Google Maps directions/location link

Add the Map to the Website

Add the Location & Map Embed

Give the map embed and business details to your AI coding assistant.

Add Business Location & Google Maps Embed

Adds the business name, address, Google Maps embed, and directions link to the most appropriate existing section — responsive, no horizontal overflow, a sensible map height, an accessible title, a readable address if the map fails to load, and lazy loading where appropriate — never adds the Maps JavaScript API or an exposed key when a normal embed covers it, never invents business details, runs the production build, and answers Location integration: READY or NOT READY with exactly what changed.

Add this business location and Google Maps embed to the existing website. Business name: [BUSINESS NAME] Address: [BUSINESS ADDRESS] Google Maps embed: [GOOGLE MAPS EMBED CODE OR EMBED URL] Google Maps directions link: [GOOGLE MAPS LINK] First inspect the existing Contact, Location, and Footer sections before changing anything. Requirements: - preserve the existing website design - place the map in the most appropriate existing section - do not create a duplicate location section unnecessarily - display the correct business address - add a clear "Get Directions" link or button where appropriate - make the map responsive - make sure it fits smaller mobile screens - prevent horizontal overflow - preserve appropriate spacing around the map - use a sensible map height on desktop and mobile - keep the address readable even if the map fails to load - give the map an appropriate accessible title - use lazy loading for the embedded map if appropriate Do not: - redesign unrelated parts of the website - add the Google Maps JavaScript API if a normal embed already satisfies the requirement - create or expose an API key unnecessarily - add fake business information - change phone numbers, opening hours, or other business details unless I provided corrected information Run the production build afterward. Finish with: **Location integration: READY / NOT READY** Then list exactly what you changed.

Keep the Location Useful

A good location section can include:

- Business name

- Address

- Map

- Get Directions button

- Phone number

- Opening hours

But do not overcrowd it.

NOTE

If the website already displays this information elsewhere, reuse the existing design rather than creating another large block.

Test the Map & Location on the Live Website

Check Desktop and Mobile

Before publishing, make sure the map is useful rather than merely visible.

The map loads

The correct location is shown

The pin is correct

The address matches the map

The map does not overflow the page

Users can interact with it

The Get Directions link opens the correct location

The section works on mobile

Text remains readable

The website still works if the map loads slowly

Run the Final Production-Readiness Check

Business Location Production Check

Verifies the correct business name and address everywhere, no conflicting or outdated addresses, the map embed and directions link point to the intended location, the map is responsive with no horizontal scrolling and an accessible title, the page stays usable if the map loads slowly, no unnecessary Maps API code or exposed key, desktop and mobile both work, no important browser errors, and the production build succeeds — never redesigns unrelated sections, never deploys anything, and answers Location status: READY or NOT READY.

Run a final production-readiness check for the business location and Google Maps integration. Verify: - the correct business name is displayed - the correct address is displayed everywhere - there are no conflicting or outdated addresses - the Google Maps embed points to the intended location - the directions link opens the correct Google Maps location - the map is responsive - there is no horizontal scrolling - the map has an appropriate accessible title - the page remains usable if the map loads slowly or fails - the map is not loading unnecessary Google Maps API code - no unnecessary API key is exposed - desktop and mobile layouts still work - there are no important browser errors - the production build succeeds Do not redesign unrelated sections. Do not deploy anything automatically. Finish with: **Location status: READY / NOT READY** If NOT READY, list only what must be fixed.

Test After Publishing

Once the website is live:

Open the location page on your phone. Tap Get Directions. Confirm Google Maps opens the correct business. Check the map on desktop. Verify the address matches your other public business information.
