  To be a google Local Guide it is not a job at all. You don 't get paid anything. It is like a hobby. To be a Google Local you simple need Google Map... The game is to keep up to date the information on Google map. You add pictures, video, information, feedbacks,... About a place, site, road events, meals, anything around you. The more your contribute the more points your earn... You will find more information... Source: over 1 year ago
