Use Mapquest To Get Free Driving Directions

Mapquest offers free driving directions and digital maps, I have been using mapquest driving directions for more than thirteen years, thanks to this great oline mapping service I have been able to save thousands of miles and probably hundreds of thousands of dollars too.

MQ is perhaps one of the oldest web mapping sites, AOL's popular online mapping service was launched back in the 90's, MQ is almost 16 years old, and after all this time it is still considered one of the top internet mapping sites in the world. The only site that's probably more popular than Map Quest is Google Maps, which is also a great site that has lots of tools and interactive features, the driving directions that Google Maps provides are also very accurate.

This online mapping website can be accessed through any mobile phone, or any other mobile device that allows you to browse the web, you can access this service through your phone's web browser, another option is to download the official MQ app for mobile, the app is free, but you can only download it if you have an Android or iPhone phone.

The vast majority of drivers that use the internet know that the driving directions MQ offers are very accurate, they are also very quick and easy to follow. I've been a loyal user of this service for many years, it has never disappointed me, in fact, the service is so good that I even convinced my dad of using it, and my dad doesn't even know how to use computers!

Map Quest was probably one of the first online mapping websites that I used, after using this service for a while I became really addicted to internet mapping programs, since then I have been trying and testing most of the free online mapping websites, by now I have been able to use services such as Via Michelin, Bing Maps, Yahoo Maps, and Expedia. After doing a lot of testing, I still believe that AOL's online mapping website and Google Maps are the best.

If you are located in the European continent, don't worry, because you can use Via Michelin, which is perhaps the most utilized online mapping service in Europe, this site also provides free driving directions, and high quality interactive maps. There's another popular internet mapping site in Europe known as Mappy, the only problem with Mappy is that it is only available for french speaking countries, while V. Michelin is available worldwide.
