About Mapquest

By Janice Todorov


Map Quest is one of the most accurate driving directions providers on the web, I have visited over one thousand internet mapping websites to get driving directions, but the popular MQ site and Google Maps are the ones that I've liked the most, because they have provided me with the most accurate directions. Even though G Maps and MapQuest.com are my favorite, there are other web mapping sites that are very cool and useful, those sites are Bing Maps, Yahoo Maps, and Rand McNally, Yahoo Maps has an excellent free live traffic report, and Bing Maps provides 3d images online.

Map Quest is one of the best internet mapping softwares, it is also one of the most veteran online mapping sites, it was launched in 1996, that means that MQ has been helping drivers everywhere get to their destination in an easier manner for more than 15 years! To get driving directions all you have to do is visit the official MQ website, look for the blue get directions link, click on it, enter your locations, starting address in "A", ending address in "B", click on get directions, and you are done, the route planning software will automatically create a very efficient route to help you get to where you need to go.

As mentioned before, there are lots of websites where you can get free driving directions, but G Maps and MQ simply beat them all, their directions are simply more accurate. I started using this service more than 12 years ago, since then it has been helping me find the best routes to go from one place to another, AOL's online mapping software provides easy driving directions that any person can follow, and if you start using it today, it will not only help you save time, it will also help you save money.

Any person can get free driving directions at Mapquest.com through their mobile phone, if their phone has access to the internet of course. If you already have a phone that allows you to browse the web, then all you have to do is open up your phone's browser and visit MQ's mobile site, once you are at the site enter your locations and then hit he "get directions" button, when you click on "get directions" the route planning software will instantly plot the best possible route on a high quality map.

Nothing is perfect, even a well oiled machine does not work well every now and then, but that has never happened to Map Quest, I have used many online mapping softwares for driving directions in my life, but MQ is the only website that gets it right every single time. I hate wasting time, that's why I don't like traffic, that's also why I hate closed roads and roads under construction, thanks to this service I never have to deal with traffic, closed roads, detours, and stuff like that, because the advanced routing software that this site has automatically re-routes me around traffic and all the other things that I hate.
