Systems and methods are used to enable creating, searching, and managing user-managed online pages (e.g., MAPpages) linked to locations on an interactive digital map. In one aspect, the method includes, at a server system: receiving, from a client, a request to create a new MAPpage of a first type selected from a plurality of preexisting types; creating the new MAPpage of the first type associated with a first physical location and the client, uploading the new MAPpage to a platform containing MAPpages uploaded directly from content contributors; indexing the new MAPpage to the first physical location on an interactive digital map; and for each MAPpage associated with the client, enabling the client to associate the respective MAPpage with one or more physical locations, the one or more physical locations including the first physical location.
