Few Updates on My Google Local guides Activity
- 200 Million+ Views on Photos I added to Google Maps
1st 100 Million views took 2.5 Years, Achieved in March 2020
2nd 100 Million views took 7 Months, Achieved in October 2020
I still remember almost one year back reading @TraciC 's Post on Achieving 200,000,000 photo views and what it means to me when we were all attending first day of Connect Live 2019. Now I am really thrilled to join 200 Million Photo Views Club.
My Local Guide journey started in 2017, in fact my first contribution to Google Maps was on July 23rd 2017.
Here are few more milestones on Reviews and Places Added contribution.
2.5 Million+ views for Places added
Almost 2 Million views for Reviews added
Here are my most viewed pictures on Maps
7.4 Million Views [UC Riverside Clock Tower]. This is also a cover photo of this POI
5.7+ Million Views [Legion of Honor Museum] This is also a Cover Photo of this POI
5.1 Million View [Napa Valley]
5+ Million [CTR Masala Dosa Picture. Bangalore, India]
Next wish list is to join some of the 1/2 Billion and Billion View club members! (Will probably take several Years!!) @Herve_Andrieu , @TorM , @Marc_G
Also Tagging @AdamGT who started very interesting posts on Star Photos and related statistics.
