Introduction:
As Local Guides, it's often amazing which of all of our great photos we contribute to Google Maps has the most views. We call this our star photo and this post is all about such stars. It's an update on the 6 April 2023 Top 100 Star Photo Leaderboards post and contains a set of leaderboards that, as well as showcasing the star photos of hundreds of Local Guides, presents a very detailed analysis of their performance. Whether you're a Level 10 or a Level 4 Local Guide, we all have a star photo, so you can join in to showcase your star, and it's simple to do. Just hit this link and register or if you want to know more then see this How-to post by @AZ_2021.
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 over 70 countries, 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 indicate how helpful your photos are to Maps users.
Is this a competition?
While there is an inherent competitive element within them, the aim of these leaderboards is to motivate us, help us to think about and monitor our contributions and performance, and show us how we can improve the quality of and make better contributions so that we achieve better results all in a fun and enjoyable way! If this can be done then these leaderboards will have achieved their objective; mission accomplished!
So if you haven't as yet shared your star photo then register now as we'd all love to see it!
