Google Earth puts a planet's worth of imagery and other geographic information right on your desktop. View exotic locales like Florence, Italy and Paris, France as well as points of interest such as local restaurants, hospitals, schools, and more. Steps to add the Google Earth feature to your directory listing: You have to enter the longitude and latitude manually into your listing. We have found that the easiest way to get these coordinates is to open Google Earth (after installing the free download from the Google Earth site). Navigate to the location of your listing address. Zoom in to that location by double-clicking on the house address (Google Earth will move the view so that your "double-click" is in the exact center of the view). Then make note of the longitude and latitude of that location. Note that Google Earth might display the 'minutes and seconds' of the location instead of 'degrees'. This setting can be switched in the Google Earth menu by clicking "Tools" > "Options" > "View" > "Lat/Lon".
By adding Google Earth to your listing you will draw attention to your ad and get customers more interested! This will make it very easy for them to find out a lot more about the benefits of the area. |
