So this post is going to be alot of information that you probably already know but just fail to practice. In the article I will explain some tips and tricks that can help you do better and get you growing quicker.
Ok so I will assume you know know the points work on Google guides and you can find this in “Conncect”.
The fastest way to grow is with photos and videos. So make sure you take loads of pictures and do so intelligently. So if you shy about snapping all over the place a pro tip is to use your mobile flat against your body and use the volume button as the shutter. Make sure you turn to different directions and capture at least 20 pictures to post. You should also make it a goal to do at least 2 videos. You should also caption a few because it helps the viewer understand what you have captured. Make sure you do a meaningful review of at least 200 characters as this greatly increases your chances of getting likes which are required as you level up.
So having done a detailed rated review with 20 pictures and 2 videos will earn you 135 points.
You will be greatly contributing to maps and growing at a better rate.
Hope theses tips help and you find your growth on Maps.
Give honest reviews, try to be informative, ask for the permission before taking photos, and add only informative photos.
The point is not to grow fast, but to grow with consistent contributions, to really help others. So I would seriously discourage your suggestions. A good Local Guide is not a Local Guide with a lot of point, but a Local Guide that is helpful to the others and to the business.
Hi @Mase_26 thank you for posting here on connect as this enables others to see where you need to improve, as @ErmesT mentioned, it is not encouraged to focus on growing points than quality of your contribution. I am happy that you from around where I live and luckily you made it your task to get in touch with me, others will be sharing with you how to be a great local guide by sharing with you links to certain posts, please read to understand as this will make you a better local guide each and everyday you read a new post.
I will encourage you to spend more time reading here which will be beneficiary to you, and we will be meeting soon to discus more and how we can grow each other. Thank you.
