What is marker clustering?

Marker clustering groups nearby map markers into a single cluster icon showing the count of listings in that area. As users zoom in, clusters break apart into individual markers.

Does it improve map performance?

Yes, by reducing the number of individual marker elements rendered on the map, clustering significantly improves map load times and interaction smoothness, especially on listing-heavy directories.

Can I customize cluster appearance?

Yes, cluster styling including colors, sizes, and count display can be customized to match your directory theme and map design.

How do users see individual listings?

Users click on a cluster to zoom into that area, which breaks the cluster into smaller clusters or individual markers. They can then click individual markers to view listing details.

Does it work on mobile?

Yes, marker clustering improves mobile map performance by reducing memory usage and rendering load, making maps smoother to interact with on phones and tablets.
