# Embed a map on your website

Type an address, choose a pin or an approximate area, and copy map code you can paste into any website builder.

## Where to paste it

| WordPress | Edit the page, add a **Custom HTML** block and paste the code. On WordPress.com, scripts need a plan that allows them; the image code works on every plan. |
| --- | --- |
| Wix | Click **Add** → **Embed Code** → **Embed HTML**, choose **Code** and paste. Wix shows embedded code inside a frame served from `filesusr.com`, so if your key is limited to certain websites, add `*.filesusr.com` to it. |
| Squarespace | Edit the page, add a **Code** block, paste the code and turn off **Display source**. If your plan removes scripts from code blocks, use the image code. |
| Webflow | Drag a **Code Embed** element onto the page and paste. Webflow publishes custom code on paid site plans; the image code also works as an Image element's URL. |
| Shopify | Go to **Online Store** → **Themes** → **Customize**, add a **Custom Liquid** section and paste. |
| Google Sites | Click **Insert** → **Embed** → **Embed code** and paste. Google Sites shows it in a frame on `googleusercontent.com`; add `*.googleusercontent.com` to a key that is limited to certain websites. |
| Anything else | Any page or email template that accepts HTML: paste the image code. For pages that accept scripts, the interactive code works too. |

## Keep your key safe on a public page

Map code on a website shows its key to anyone who views the page source. That's normal for map keys, and two things protect you:

- **Limit the key to your website.** In the [dashboard](https://mapiron.com/dashboard), add your site's address to the key; requests from other sites are refused.
- **Hard monthly caps.** Every MapIron plan stops at its cap. If someone did reuse your key, the worst case is a map that pauses until next month, never a surprise bill.

## Image or interactive?

**Image** code is one `<img>` tag: it works in every website builder and in emails, loads fastest and counts as 1 static image each time it is drawn (browsers and our CDN cache it). **Interactive** code loads the free Leaflet library and lets visitors drag and zoom; each view loads about 16 map tiles. See [what each plan includes](https://mapiron.com/pricing).

## Approximate areas for listings

For rentals, home sales and marketplaces, the approximate-area option shows a neighborhood circle instead of the house. The builder rounds the location to about 1 km before writing the code, so the exact address isn't in your page source either. More in [privacy-safe listing maps](https://mapiron.com/privacy-maps).

## Questions

**Do I need to know how to code?**

No. Type the address, press the button, copy the code and paste it into your website builder's HTML or embed block.

**Is it free?**

The builder is free. The map itself uses your key: the Free plan includes 100 map images and 10,000 map tiles a month, and paid plans start at $19 a month with no overage bills.

**Can I show more than one location?**

This builder makes one location at a time. For several pins, use the static map URL with markers separated by |, as shown in the static map maker, or ask us at hello@mapiron.com.

**Does the map show the OpenStreetMap credit?**

Yes. Images have it in the corner and the interactive map shows it at the bottom. Keep it visible: it's required.

## No developer needed

One key for map images, address lookups and tiles. Free to start, no card; paid plans let you keep every result and never bill overages.
