YELP

So, I love to YELP!
I got started on Yelp, because Maria, my best friend, became the community manager for Miami.
Yeah Maria!


What is YELP?
It is a review website where you can look up reviews on practically anyplace with a real address. A restaurant, doctor's office, hair salon... you name it!
Where do these reviews come from?
From people like you!
That is the great thing, these are REAL reviews from REAL people, not from some food critic who was paid off to say what he said anyways and treated real special to begin with.
You can create a profile for free, and then you too can start reviewing the places you go. What do you love? What totally sucks? Where do you go on an everyday basis?
YELP is also more than just an online thing, it is a community thing. There are YELP events all the time. Want to check out the hot new bar that just opened up? How bout' doing that, and getting discount drinks or free appetizers while doing it? And you get to socialize with other YELPERS.
Write enough, and you can ask to be ELITE. Then the free stuff really starts coming in! Why? Because the ELITES are what make the site successful. So we get perks.
Special parties, tickets to up coming events... all for sharing my opinion! It seems to be worth a whole lot more than two cents!
