Yelp Introduces a New Feature: Yelp WorldMap

When it comes to restaurants and businesses, you can now always find exactly what you’re looking for.  With Yelp’s newest feature the Yelp WorldMap, users can use keywords to find precisely what they want by simply typing in a keyword as vague as “romantic,” “cheap,” or even “bacon.”

Once users hit “Search,” WorldMap yields a heatmap indicating areas in which one can find restaurants and businesses that pertain to the keyword.  Areas with more pertinent locations are indicated by darker blotches of red, while areas with fewer locations are lighter.

So far, the WorldMap is available for 14 cities, including Austin, Boston, Chicago, London, Los Angeles, New York, Paris, Philadelphia, Portland, San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle, Toronto and Washington, D.C.

This is the perfect addition to Yelp for both tourists and those looking to discover new hotspots in their own neighborhoods.  We at PMBC Group, a Los Angeles Technology PR Firm can’t wait to try it out this holiday weekend!
