  Select Layer. Then from the top menu:
  
  `Layer` => `Add Marker`
  
  Or if you want to do it from your keyboard you can modify shortcuts using [this article](https://helpx.adobe.com/after-effects/using/modify-keyboard-shortcuts.html).

  By default `Ctrl`+`8` will add a marker. If you have a region selected then the market will be applied to that region. If nothing is selected, the marker is applied to the comp's timeline at the top.
