MapsAlive Benefits
Advantages to using MapsAlive

1. Easy to use
Anyone with average computer skills can use MapsAlive to create a professional on-line tour (see a short how-to video). Until now, results like these would have been attainable only by skillful web developers at a high cost.
2. A real sense of place and perspective
The combination of maps and associated photos and text in a MapsAlive tour gives viewers a real sense of place and perspective. It’s the next best thing to being there.
3. Tours appear instantly on the web
Create your tour and it appears instantly on the web with its own URL. Updates take effect as soon as you make them. There’s no programming required and you don’t need a web host or your own domain.

4. You update your content yourself 
You can change the text or photos in your tour very easily and the modifications appear on the web instantly.  You don't have to communicate the changes to someone else and wait for them to do the work. 
5. Can be its own website or embedded
Use your tour as a standalone site or embed it directly into an existing website.
6. You tailor the look
You decide on the style of your tour and can change it at anytime. You can give your tours a look that will blend seamlessly with your existing website.
7. Available anywhere, anytime
MapsAlive is a web-based application so there’s no software to download or install. It’s available anywhere in the world 24/7.
8. Very Affordable
MapsAlive tours are inexpensive. You can create a simple tour with up to 10 photos for free. One-year paid subscriptions start at just $39/year. Learn More.
The MapsAlive application is updated automatically on the web so there are no upgrade costs when new features are released.
9. Show lots of information in one place
A tour can display an enormous amount of information. Show as many photos and as much information as you need on a single page. Add as many pages to your tour as you want.
10. Tours hold viewers’ attention
Viewers are engaged by the interactivity of a MapsAlive tour. If it’s embedded into your site, they’ll stay longer than they would on other sites.
