Are you a Yelper? Chances are, you are.
Since the socially and locally focused company got its start in 2004 folks using their service to rate and review businesses, or Yelpers as they call them, have written more than 33 million local reviews. The site convenes more than 80 million unique visitors each month, and for good reason.
In many ways Yelp was an early player in the social media sphere who actually understood what the social revolution was all about. While some other social sites have fallen by the wayside over the years, Yelp has continued to prove its value in the everyday lives of consumers and businesses around the country. Business owners and managers can create free accounts to boost their business profile, respond to Yelpers, and help manage events.
This year, we’re happy to welcome Yelp as a sponsor to the SoCon family and tradition. The SoCon series, getting its start way back in 2007, is one of the longest running social media conference series in the Southeast – but Yelp was around first. After nearly a decade in the space, we’re excited to have another social pioneer partnering with SoCon13.
