Yelp doesn't suck after all

By David Grant - Posted on 13 October 2011

It turns out Yelp doesn't suck after all. Well, ok, it did suck when 5 out of 5 of my reviews were filtered out, essentially flagged as spam. I wrote a bunch more reviews, and I guess I have now become a trusted reviewer, so now all my reviews are no longer filtered. Yah!

For a business owner, Yelp still sucks. If your first review is 1 star from an "elite" member you will never be allowed to have a better review un-filtered. Human manipulated keyword database. Get on the wrong list and you are screwed.
