Is it possible to write custom text on Google Maps API v3?

Question

Is it possible to write a custom text on Google Maps API v3 next to the marker, or I can use only the info window to do that?

Answer 1

Here is working code:

#map {
  height: 500px;
}
html, body {
  height: 100%;
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}
