YELP

Yelp is a social networking site that allows anyone to post reviews about any business in the world. More than 25 million people access Yelp each month, putting in the top 100 of U.S. Web sites.

Business should be aware of Yelp and the reviews people may be posting about their companies. Though Yelp does not currently remove negative reviews, it has recently changed its policy to allow for business owners to reply to the negative reviewers. This topic covers the latest news and information on Yelp.
