No benefit or Reward for being a google local guide

Hi @khushpal Welcome to the Connect Community.

Local guides not get anything from the Google maps but the Google maps give rewards time to time who contribute in High Quality to the maps. I am questioning to you What was the photos you have added in the maps? There are unnecessary photos & videos in your profile. Your contributions all are against to the Community Policy.

In the community policy it was clearly mentioned to write helpful reviews & to Avoid “ok,” “good,” or “yum.” But in most of your reviews mentioned “Good, Nice etc…” Thse are not helpful reviews.
What is this review? Nothing helpful in this.

Being a local guide we help millions of people by our high quality photos & review. We help the people & business owners / small business by adding their place, photos & writing our experience in review. Also by adding roads, removing closed roads / places for better directions & to reach the destination correctly.

This decision was yours & Google maps was not forcing anyone to continue as the local guide & contribute to the maps. Go to the places and add it take photos review it etc… And add / remove the roads / places.

If you want to leave the Local Guides program you can. See this post by @MortenCopenhagen. In this post you can know how to leave the program.

If you want to start your Local Guide Journey in a good way

  1. Clear the photos / all you have added to the maps.
  2. Clear the reviews you have added to the maps.
  3. And and start your journey from starting.
  4. Start contributing in High quality. Take photos of the places like Storefront and more in helpful way. Respect the privacy and take the photos with permission from the owner.
  5. Start reviewing the places from next when you visit a place. Share your own experience & avoid Good, Nice.
  6. When you have interest you can add roads / remove the roads.
  7. If you are free you can explore the Connect and find tips for contributing.

Thank You :handshake:
