Top Google Maps Local Guide Movers & Shakers 2024

[AdamGT]

For over four incredible years, the Leaderboards have been a beacon of inspiration, celebrating the outstanding contributions and achievements of top Google Maps Local Guides right here on Connect. Among these, the increasingly popular Local Guides Movers & Shakers have shone particularly brightly, spotlighting the most dynamic contributors driving amazing results each month on Maps. Just take a look at this example—these leaderboards highlight Local Guides who have earned the most points, garnered the highest photo views, and achieved star status with their most viewed photos, videos, and 360° spheres in the past month.

But that’s not all! Alongside the monthly Movers & Shakers, we also unveil the annual Movers & Shakers, and last year’s champions were celebrated in the Top Movers & Shakers in 2023 post. Now, as the year races to a close, the excitement builds: who will rise to the top and claim the title of being a Top Mover & Shaker in 2024?

Will the 2024 Movers & Shakers include:

@PrasadVR, a truly amazing Local Guide who astounded us all by adding 20,000 new roads to Maps?
@Kumaarsantosh, with a jaw-dropping 2.5 million+ views on his contributions in a single month?
@AjitThite, a hero who helps local businesses in his community and smashed through the 20 million photo views milestone this December?
@Trail_blazer who continually shows us how to improve the quality of our Maps contributions and he himself hit 160 Million Views on his contribution in early December!
@jayasimha78 who has well over 3 Million views on his star video! And we all know that video is the new frontier on Maps, don’t we!

The suspense is electric, and the answers are just around the corner! With the November Movers & Shakers set to be revealed in just days, we might catch a glimpse of this year’s contenders. But don’t count anyone out—there’s still all of December left, and surprises could be waiting as Local Guides sprint to the finish line.

So, who will emerge victorious? The countdown has begun! Keep guiding, keep contributing, and continue making a difference in your community. Your achievements inspire us all!

Finally, if you’re not on the Leaderboards but wish to participate, you can register here.

Wishing everyone the very best!

[AdamGT]

[AdamGT]

@ShreyaMusings, it would be a difficult task to pick a better group than @PrasadVR @Kumaarsantosh @AjitThite @Trail_blazer and @jayasimha78 to get guidance and inspiration from. Follow any one of these top Local Guides and you will indeed improve your Connect experience.

[AdamGT]

I’m so glad that like me you’re stoked about this @JustJake and that you also love the Movers & Shakers. The monthly ones are very popular but the annual ones even more so. Oh I couldn’t agree with you more Jake, it certainly has been a BIG year for lots of Local Guides including moi. I have a hunch that next year will be an even bigger one. If that little birdie is right, it certainly will be

[AdamGT]

@PrasadVR @Kumaarsantosh @AjitThite @Trail_blazer and @jayasimha78 are certainly to be congratulated on their contributions to Maps, Connect and their respective community @Silvi. It will be interesting to see if they will be included in the 2024 Movers & Shakers. They are certainly very deserving of being so anyway it’s not long now before we will all know.

[AdamGT]

Thank you @Annaelisa and I agree with you, and stealing borrowing the words of @Kumaarsantosh, it’s a beautiful end-of-year way to show and shine everyone. But of course there are strict rules to participation on both the monthly and yearly Movers & Shakers and on this, for the yearly I recommend that everyone carefully read and understand the readme here.

[AjitThite]
