Frequently Asked Questions
Is it really free?
Yes, there are both Free and Custom versions of the ShowMe Maps application. To learn more about the difference please see our Pricing page.
Who owns the content?
Your map, your content. The only thing we require is that any content i.e. photos or written material you include in your map is free from copyright or that you own the copyright.
Can I close/delete my map?
Of course, you have full control of your map. You also have the option of simply unpublishing the map, one or more categories or one or more locations/listings.
Will I be able to allow other users to manage or update my map?
Yes, the system allows you to create other users accounts for managing the whole map or for managing specific categories or individual locations/listings.
Are there different marker styles to choose from?
Yes, there is a comprehensive library of marker icons and new ones are continually being added. You can set any colour for your map markers or different colours as required.
Google Street View™ isn't in my area, can I still make a map?
Absolutely! Any tab can be set as the initial view so while having a Street View™ is nice, it certainly isn't essential. To see where the Google Street View™ vehicles have been click here.
Can I use a custom domain name for my map?
Yes, this is a great feature. You can register any domain name, tell us what it is and we will provide you with the technical details (DNS records) so that the map uses the domain. A small annual fee applies.
Is there a way to include the map within my own website?
Yes, we can provide you with an embed code for having the map as part of an existing website. The only condition is that your website should be fully responsive i.e. mobile compliant and be able to support full browser width. We can check and advise on that as required. There is no charge for this.
