After importing KML to Google Maps, point is showing in Antartica

Question

I\'m trying to figure out what I\'m doing wrong.

Here is a very simple version of my KML:

Answer 1

See the documentation on coordinates, the coordinates are in longitude,latitude,[altitude]

A single tuple consisting of floating point values for longitude, latitude, 
and altitude (in that order). Longitude and latitude values are in degrees, 
where:

   longitude ≥ −180 and <= 180
   latitude ≥ −90 and ≤ 90
   altitude values (optional) are in meters above sea level

Do not include spaces between the three values that describe a coordinate.

So they should be:

<coordinates>-80.282852,25.872066</coordinates>

(Assuming you want the placemark in Florida)
