It all started with my habit of really looking for restaurants around me via Google maps and my habit of trying out restaurants that are around where I live, I began to think how useful it would be if I could share experiences about a place I had visited. That’s where I started to routinely contribute to Google maps like writing reviews, adding places, adding photos, videos and more.
I think being able to help other people by being a local guide is very cool, for example, like I add a small business around me. After the business appears on Google maps, the customers become more and more, because the business can be found easily on Google maps.
I also like answering questions on Google maps about access to a wheelchair somewhere in the city I live in, the reason is because I see in my city there are still few buildings or places that are friendly to wheelchair users and information like this is very useful for many people.
That’s why I like being a local guide and now my contribution is not just in restaurants but I am very happy that there are many places with various types of benefits that I spread through Google maps by becoming a local guide.
