How do I add a Google map address to HTML?

Yes, you can add Google Maps to your HTML website or blog using Google’s Embed Code Generator or Google’s free HTML Map Generator. Both of these options allow you to embed a Google Map that pinpoints your address with a Red Balloon, though there’s a slight difference between them. While the former lets you embed a static map that allows your visitors to see your exact location, nearby landmarks, etc., the latter offers a Directions feature that creates a complete route map that they may use to find driving directions to your location. Depending on your need, you can use either of these options to add Google Maps to your website or blog.
