YELP!

Have you ever wondered how to get a quick and easy review or second opinion for something, but you didn’t have time to ask anyone face to face?

No problem!

There is a site made just for that, and it is only a click away. www.yelp.com Yelp is a web site designed for people to visit and post their opinions and/or reviews on just about any retailer. Their posts are anything like doctors and dentists to restaurants and bars, plus anything in between.

Yelp was founded in 2004. Since then it has about 53 million reviews posted. Yelp is easy to join. Simply visit www.yelp.com and sign up to be a member. The membership is free.  


I chose to join Yelp because I like to read the opinions that are posted. I like to try new restaurants.  I like that the site has restaurant reviews right at the very top of the page. There are thousands of reviews to choose from. Yelp is clear and to the point, and that is something I like in a review. I feel like I am getting honest feedback from the reviews on Yelp.

What I look for in a review is honest information, graphs, and statistics. This is what I think qualifies as a good review. It is what people want out of a properly done one. So I advise you to check out www.yelp.com Take a little bit of time to research something before you try it out for yourself.

Have Fun & Enjoy!

  1. Engaging first paragraph; it drew me "in." Your post included a photo (no cite) and active links to yelp. Informative background information on the review site. Short, but relevant post title. I think the purpose of the post was why you "claimed" your business or joined Yelp from the business owner (vs. personal) perspective. The last couple paragraphs are a bit confusing - reference graphs and statistics, but I'm not sure if those are actually included in the review. I believe you were to ask your blog followers (clients and customers) to review your business on Yelp! 25/30 TAH

    PS - I love the leave theme of your blog. Visually appealing.
