This is a petition to encourage Google Street View and The Google Maps team to re-instate the 'See Inside' photo bucket to Google My Business.
Google’s Key Note Summit in 2016 identified the emergence of ‘micro-moments’ and explained how brands only have seconds to make an impact with consumers. As Marketers and especially as a Google Partner we are aware of the importance of providing content which is easy to find and easily accessible. Consumers in 2017 will not go looking for content – especially content they do not know exists.
Further to re-instating the ‘See Inside’ feature on desktop, the signatories of this petition would also like to see this feature on mobile searches. Google Key Note summit also addressed the importance of ‘local’ and how 75% of people who search on mobile for businesses also turn up the same day. The ‘See Inside’ feature would benefit these users in making educated and informed decisions.
If the tag of ‘See Inside’ is no longer deemed appropriate by Google Street View, then we fully support the replacement tags of ‘Virtual Tour’ ‘360 Tour’ etc.
The main priority is to see the photo bucket reinstalled on Google My Business.
Businesses want ‘See Inside’ – demand is huge, so please can we reach a middle ground on this decision. Thank you.

The demand for reinstating these visual tools remains clear as I continue to receive feedback from business owners and digital professionals who rely on these features for their clients. Your contributions persist in demonstrating that accessible virtual tours are a necessity for the modern consumer.

We are approaching one hundred signatures to signal our collective demand for the return of the See Inside feature. Please invite your professional colleagues to endorse this initiative so we can present a stronger case to the Google Maps team.

Please differentiate Tursted Photographers' quality, multi-pano tours from the "casual users" tours. Clients that pay for our professional tours want a dedicated and prominent place their tour will be displayed across Google. Please provide this highlighted placement for Google Trusted Photographers' tours.
Clients are frustrated & they are asking their money back. Without see inside there is no use of having Google Virtual Tour for them. If the See inside name seems confusing. they can place it as Virtual tour but removing the place of virtual tour is same a closing virtual tour.
See Inside is important for my business. I strongly believe that the romoval of the feature makes my services less clear and appealing to customers. I'm sure this measure was taken with good intentions but it hasn't worked and has had strong implications for Google Trusted Photographers. Please reconsider.
Even if I wasn't a trusted photographer, I value the See Inside feature because it tells me instantly that businesses have a tour and make me significantly more likely to click to view. It is imperative!
''See Inside is just a name...! I want that right side Badge/ Button/ Tab back on search result when people search with business name. It dosent matter if google changes the name from ''See Inside'' to Virtual Tour / Look Around / See Around or any...!
No one wants these tours any longer because they removed the See Inside feature!
Do it.

Bring it back, PLEASE. Being able to tell clients that the tour my Goggle Certified Photographer produces for them will help grab attention for their businesses from SERP #1 was a HUGE selling point. It's going to be tough to sell any without See Inside.
