Atlist — atlist.com/?c=video_wix_maps
Google My Maps — google.com/mymaps
Wix is awesome — but its built-in map element is very limited.
The pop-ups can’t be styled, you can’t add images or buttons, and longer descriptions turn into giant awkward boxes. Overall… it’s just a bit meh.
So in this video, I’ll show you how to embed fully interactive maps on a Wix website — with way more flexibility and control.
What you’ll learn in this video:
- How to embed custom maps into Wix
- Add thousands of markers
- Use clickable modal pop-ups
- Add search so visitors can find locations near them
- Customize map styles, markers, and layouts
I’ll walk through two map-making tools that work great with Wix:
1️⃣ Google My Maps (Free)
- Add markers manually or by searching
- Import markers from a spreadsheet
- 30 preset marker colors (no custom colors or sizes)
- Draw polygons and routes (no circles)
- Limited map styles
But Google My Maps has tradeoffs:
- You’re stuck with Google’s black header bar
- You can’t remove points of interest
- Marker clicks open a sidebar you can’t customize
2️⃣ Atlist (Paid)
- Add markers manually, by search, or via spreadsheet upload
- Sync markers from Google Sheets
- Fully customizable markers and modal pop-ups
- Add images, text, buttons, and custom layouts
- Draw circles, lines, and polygons (perfect for delivery zones)
- Custom map styles
- Powerful overlays like: Search (find nearby markers), Tags (filter markers), Lists (fully customizable marker lists)
Plus advanced features like:
- Custom fonts
- Password-protected maps
- Showing a visitor’s current location
- Restricting maps to a boundary
- Team collaboration
Why isn’t Atlist free?
Because embedding Google Maps via the Google Maps API costs money — $0.007 per map view. Google My Maps is free because Google owns it. Atlist has to pay Google, so free embeds aren’t sustainable.
Both tools have their place — and in this video, I’ll help you decide which one is right for your project.
