Yelp’s New Business Features
In the past few months, Yelp has been rolling out some monumental new features, opening up a world of exciting new possibilities for businesses. Here’s a guide to all you need to know about Yelp’s new business features.

And IHOB was anything but discreet about rolling out their seismic shift in branding, teasing and plastering their social media accounts with newly designed graphics and fully owning their new direction. This bold and forthright step into the highly competitive realm of burgers triggered significant amount of collateral chatter from the other major players in this market sector:
