Edited Places & Adding Photos on Google Map: The Most Interesting Thing I’ve Done as a Local Guide!

Now a day, million people using Google Map in a daily life. It’s not only the navigation tool but also a review platform. People google the place before they check-in. They checking for useful information reviews i.e operation times, parking available, how crowded of people or any promotion on going. But what is interesting on Google Map beside the user part? Well, for me the most interesting I’ve ever did on Google Map is being a local guide. So I can edit places and adding my own photos on places.

Edited Places on Google Map

How edit place become interesting to me? Because not everyplace you go have a very update information. The more people use Google Map the more place come out also. The way to make sure information is accurate is go check-in that place and edit it if it’s not accurate. Most of the times I correct the phone no. of the place because I want to call to ask more information and BANGG! incorrect no. :disappointed: Google Map also have a check the facts function for me to review places and how accurate it is which is make me very interested. I feel like I’m part of Google Team :slightly_smiling_face:

Adding Photos on Google Map

Another interesting point I love to make on Google Map is adding my own photos to places. The reason is picture can describe better than word. I love to add various kind of picture such as parking lot photos cause people can see how many parking available for them and is it secure parking lot. And add photos of menus and prices of the services and current promotion so people can estimated the money they need to spend at the place!

That’s all for the most 2 interested things I’ve done as a local guide on Google Map. Edited places to make more accurate and adding photos to make people see clear information. As a traveller who use to travel to Europe and Asia. And I would love to say that I wish next of my destination is the Bay Area in California to join Connect Live 2020! So I can add more reviews on Google Map :slightly_smiling_face:
