Google Mapmaker Retires To Improve Google Maps Experience!

The announcement. was made about Google’s plans to graduate Google Mapmaker to Google Maps, enhancing the user experience worldwide.
“Since 2008, the Google Map Maker community has edited and moderated millions of features to improve the Google Maps experience for users worldwide. The Google Maps team took notice and, beginning with adding and editing places, started to bring Map Maker capabilities to our desktop and mobile products to make it easier for more users to keep their communities up to date while at home or on the go. These changes have empowered many more users to update the places they care about, view the status of their edits, and moderate other users’ edits. But, we have some updates to share. Today, we want to let you know that Google Map Maker features will officially graduate and be integrated directly into Google Maps in March 2017 when we’ll retire the standalone Map Maker product.”
Google says with this update they will be able to provide the best editing and moderation experience within Google Maps on desktop as well as mobile. Edits made on Google Maps are no longer available on Google Map Maker for moderation. Google said, “This will allow us to streamline our efforts, speeding up the time for an edit to get published. We will continue posting updates here on the Map Maker Help Forum and on LocalGuidesConnect.com as we bring more features into Google Maps.”

Why Responsive Web Design is Needed?

The most challenging task before any website is to attract more and more visitors as the number of visitors is what determines the success of a particular website. The visitors are crucial so are the devices that they use. Quite a few years back, the computer was the only medium, people used for surfing the net. But, the situation today has changed drastically.
