I would like to start by saying my mother is a professional photographer who used to help me with photos and other things I have no experience and how to do it myself but I do know this. Photography is all beauty threw the len of the photographer whatever you think is beautiful capture the moment and try to express yourself by extending your experience for the local Google reviews. I have learnt so much and how to take pictures by myself and learn my own style what I like to see and what other people see things that they may not have learned or experienced or have had the pleasure to get to or even had the experience this before in the past so it’s great to be able to extend that to other people around the world using the internet thanks to Google Canada local guides Google maps reviewer.
Hi @ytara31
May I suggest that you take a look at the guidelines for photos uploaded to Google Maps.
- Selfies are now allowed
- It is not okay to share photos with silly hats or ears etc. added
- Redundant photos are not helpful and should not be uploaded. You uploaded 6 photos of the same cake.
- Uploading photos to a city or an address are also violating the guidelines.
There are a lot of official rules related to what photos can be shared on Google Maps. Unfortunately, they are well hidden in a lot of different hard to read legal documents including:
- Community Policy (often referred to as the Guidelines)
- Local Guides Program Terms and Conditions (often referred to as the Rules or Program Rules)
- Maps User Contributed Content Policy (often referred to as the Policies)
- Format Specific Criteria
- Official Connect Posts by Google Staff like these by MoniV, AnnaDickson, and AriMar.
I don’t like to be so negative, but if you want to continue as a Local Guides you will need to clean up your contributions to protect your account.
Best of luck
Morten
Hello fellow LG @ytara31
I too request you to spare time to go through what our senior LG @MortenCopenhagen has suggested.
However, happy to see your different contributions… Appreciate your efforts.
Just to give you company, I’m including one of my photos (I am a Pro Photographer).
Hope you will like this… Best wishes.
Welcome to Connect fellow Canuck But I have to agree with what @MortenCopenhagen posted , you have to perhaps not post the same repetitive photos , Goggle doesn’t like it, and your not doing yourself any favours. No selfies please
