So, i always need to explore the places( historical buildings, colleges for exams, markets for shopping etc.). But i always found Atlas has very limited information which i want. Sometimes i need to consult with delhities (delhi’s localized people) for awareness of any place.

I was always very thankful of google to launch google maps.It was a wonderful place for exploring places anywhere in the world. With google maps, i can wonderfully zoom the maps for close look, can search nearby places, can see street views etc, some images of popular images with markers on the map.So, purpose of google map has always been to help the people to find information easily without exploring the whole web.
Last week google launched Google Place Pages on google maps.A Place Page is a web page for every place in the world, organizing all the world’s information for that place.There are Place Pages for businesses, historical places, points of interest, stations and airports, landmarks, and cities all over the world.

Now we can get to a Place Page by just clicking on “more info >>“ in search results, or by clicking “more info” in

the mini-bubble.

Here one can find Photos & Videos, popular places , map image with marker pointing to your location, reviews by other visitors etc.

But there are some questions in my mind after seeing this enhancement made by google -

1.   Is google trying to resisting the visitors to navigate to other related travel site where one can found this

information?

2.   Will this enhancement be able to increase the revenue of google adwords by clicking the add on the google Place

page directly and not to any other related site ?

3.   Can ‘Place Page’ really affect the tours n travels guides websites and hence decrease their traffic and business ?
