My First Place Added: Siesta Coffee

I have been nervous about adding a place to Google maps for a while. What if I get it wrong? Afterall this is Google Maps! Countless people rely on this resource everyday. Imagine someone turning up based on my place addition to be disappointed. Such responsibly!

First Addition: Siesta Coffee

Siesta Coffee Durham

Eventually I plucked up the courage. My first two image attempts weren’t very flattering so I went back for a third. After a few edits I was finally satisfied.

After a week I received a notification from LG :. 100 people had found the location I had added. What a welcome reward. People enjoying a local coffee shop because I had taken the plunge.

What was your first addition? Were you nervous?

Hi @durhamdad

I admire the way you shared your experience about adding the first place and the immense care and concern you showed with regards to the usability of your contribution. This is indeed commendable and a nice template for other local guides to follow.

By doing that you have indeed put into practice the five core principles of LG Connect like thoughtful, helpful, and watchful.

Congratulations on posting your first article and a warm welcome to the wonderful world of LG Connect :pray:

Additionally, I would also suggest changing the setting to display the picture in a larger size - that would look awesome.
