Introduction:
As Local Guides, it's often amazing which of all of our many photos we each contribute to Google Maps has the most views. We've come to call this our star photo and this post is all about such stars. It includes a set of leaderboards that, as well as showcasing the star photos of hundreds of Local Guides from all over the world, presents a very detailed analysis of their performance. We all have a star photo, so you can join in to showcase yours and it's simple to do. Just hit this link and register or if you want some help then add a comment in this post and someone will jump in to help you.
So what can you learn from the Star Photos Leaderboards?
Well from the very detailed analysis of the star photos of the hundreds of participating Local Guides from all over the world, you can learn a lot about what type of places and what type of photos seem to get the most views on Google Maps and remember, views are important as they are a pretty good indication on how helpful your photos are to Maps users.
The Cover Image:
The cover image is that of @efcxp's star photo taken at the Australian Museum. It certainly is a great photo but in my view unusual in that in his description Estevão says that it is one of his best, if not the best, images added to Google Maps. This is unusual in the sense that most Local Guides have said that their star photo is far from being their best photo. All that said, a great shot Estevão, well framed.
Is your most viewed photo on Google Maps one of the best if not your best photo that you have added?
