Free tools draw images with the small Free-plan mark and are limited to about 20 runs an hour. For more, get a free key: no card, and new accounts get Growth's limits for 14 days.
How to make a static map on your own site
Every image above comes from one URL. Copy it, replace YOUR_KEY with your key, and use it as the src of an image. Change center, zoom and markers to move it; add more markers with | between them, or a route with path.

Questions
Is this static map maker free?
Yes, with no sign-up. Images carry a small Free-plan mark and the tool allows about 20 runs an hour. With a paid key the mark goes away and you may keep the images indefinitely.
Can I use the image on my website?
Use the API URL with your own key on your site. Free keys work commercially; paid plans remove the mark and let you store images indefinitely.
Where does the map data come from?
OpenStreetMap. Keep the credit "© OpenStreetMap contributors" near the image.
Do this from your own code
One key for images, geocoding and tiles. Free to start, no card, and paid plans let you keep every result.
