Dear Moderators,
If I just upload photos but don’t write any review or rate a place, will my contribution count as a valid one?
Example: There is a Bar/Pub at my locality. Now, I don’t drink, so I don’t want to go inside. If I click photos from outside (storefront) and post those on Google Maps but don’t write any review as I am not receiving their service, so in that case will my contribution count as a valid contribution?
Or, ratings or reviews needed to support your image contribution?

Hello @DibyayanC
Of course yes!!! Adding a photo is 5 points. You are perfectly free to add only photos. It’s not wrong neither is it compulsory to write or support it with a review
Well if It’s a new shop or POI or even an old one and you want to help others see what the place look like. That’s just great.
There is a post on Tips-for-taking-storefront-photos-on-Google-Maps please kindly read that. There is also another one on What-photos-should-I-share-on-Google-Maps? . Thank you for asking .
Happy guiding
Cheers

@DibyayanC Thanks for your question.
It sometimes happen for some places we could not enter or take any service. So may you suggest that you have to take a clear store front picture and upload in Google Map. Don’t give unnecessary picture.
Thanks.
