I am playing on a LAN minecraft and after a while needed a map, but when I went to make the bigger to see more, it only increased once, no matter how many times I went to make it. Is this a glitch or just a new map size or what? I have tried making a new one and it suffers from the same problem.

Make sure you're not shift clicking it out of your inventory, it won't expand the size if you do that. Also, you have to re-explore all the existing territory when you increase the size of a map, so you might as well make it as large as you'll want and then explore.
No, it's not a bug. You need to move a long way away from your first map, till you're on the edge of it, then make a new one.
