Should I add latitude and longitude to my locations?


Yes. Set Exact Coordinate for All Locations

It's considered best practice to add the geographic coordinates to all locations; This ensures that when customers are using Google Maps or Waze to find your location, they're sent to the right access point. The location address may not always match where you want customers to enter (such as in a shopping mall or corporate page), which is why adding the coordinates is so important.

Adding that marker is a simple process in LocalClarity.
  1. In Manage Locations, select the location you wish to update and click to open the right-hand detail control pane.
  2. Select the Single Location Edit (*Pencil Icon*) and then scroll down to SetMarker. Click on the map.
  3. On the map that pops out, you can then place a pin to indicate the correct entrance for customers to access.
  4. Press the OK button to finish.
