Yelp Mobile

We are always on the go, and with advanced mobile phone technologies and smartphones, we are now able to constantly search for information while we are on the go. But with so many search engines offering so much specialization, which are we to use when we want quality local results without having to sift through tons of useless search results? One great option is Yelp Mobile.

Yelp is a search engine founded in 2004 which is designed to help people easily find local businesses like doctors and plumbers and such. Since then, Yelp has grown to have millions of visitors every month, and registered members (sign up is free) have written over 6 million reviews of local businesses and restaurants. Yelp also offers The Weekly Yelp, a weekly info magazine available in 24 city editions in places such as Austin, Chicago, London and San Francisco. There are also special offers and discounts available on the site.

Yelp Mobile takes this great free search engine, with its automated filter that weeds out suspicious or compromised reviews, and puts it in your hand. You can even get in contact with other members, or as they are referred to, Yelpers. If you are out and about in the city and you are looking for a specific business, or looking for a range of places to visit and things to do, Yelp Mobile for your mobile phone can help you find exactly what you want locally and do it while you are on the way.
