14
TAP THE SUBMIT BUTTON AT THE TOP RIGHT CORNER OF THE SCREEN WHEN THIS IS COMPLETE.
TIPS
Use a search engine to gather the remainder of the information that you may be missing. Bing is popular to grab this information effectively, however, any major search engine will do.
WARNINGS
Make it a mandatory point to ask for corrections to be made when the name of the business is in ALL CAPS. Ask for corrections so the name looks more appealing to other users. Although Yelp moderators approve these changes more quickly than others, it will take 24 hours for them to approve it and make these changes.
Make it a mandatory point to ask for corrections to be made for when the name of a doctor is in the correct form. By default, yelp lists doctor's names by "last name first name title" (no commas). Ask them to fix these names so the first name is first. Each listing is not part of a list.
THINGS YOU\'LL NEED
iOS device
Yelp app
Yelp account
Yelp profile page of the business
corrected information of the business (must be verifiable)
