Claim your Yelp Business Page
You’ve created your business listing on Yelp, but now what? Claiming your business page on Yelp is the next step to getting found by customers who are ready to spend their money with you. Read our guide on how to claim your Yelp Business Page and get started today!
1- Claiming your Yelp Business Page
Claim your Yelp Business Page
Claiming a Yelp business page can provide many benefits to your company. For starters, it will allow you to add more information about your company, including additional photos and links to social profiles such as Facebook and Twitter. In addition, claiming a Yelp business page allows you to receive alerts via email when people claim or check in at your business on Yelp. It also allows users to write reviews of you directly on Yelp rather than on other sites like Citysearch. If you haven't claimed your business yet, head over there now and claim it!
2- How do I get started?
Claiming and creating a Yelp business page is simple. First, you'll need to claim your Yelp business page. This will require you to verify that you own or represent the company you're claiming—but it's easy to do so through Yelp's online form or by calling them at 1-866-449-6391. Once verified, you can begin adding photos, updating information about your business (hours of operation, for example), responding to reviews, and more.
3- What if my business already has a profile?

When you already have a Yelp business page, claim it to update it and add or remove photos, links, and other information. There's no need to create a new page if you've been writing reviews on Yelp—just change them in an existing profile. If someone else has claimed your business page or started creating one under yours, that's fine, too; just let them know they're following a path already taken by others. All you have to do is log into your business account and click Claim This Page at the top of any Yelp business page screen—and then follow up with whoever claims it next.
4- Where can I learn more about managing my business's presence on Yelp?

5- What does my business gain from being on Yelp?
Before you claim your Yelp business page, think about what you want out of it. What's in it for you? You may want to get reviews and feedback on products and services (anyone can view your page). You may want to be included in Yelp search results. Or maybe you're just looking for some new customers. Whatever it is, write down what you hope to gain from a Yelp business account, as well as potential downsides (for example, dealing with negative or inaccurate reviews—yikes!). Then think through how much time and energy that'll take—and whether those are resources worth investing. Remember: a claim is permanent! If there's even a chance that things won't work out, don't do it. If not now, when? Claim away!
