    if you didn't know already, you know now. Dont sign up for anything for business without reading the small print.


    You do not have any of the consumer protections in place, they can put anything in the smallprint. You could be giving up your home as collaterol in the smallprint.

    I can't remember the last time I saw their website in the search results, how they're still conning people into thinking they play a role in the decision-making process is beyond me.


    It's old tech luddites who get conned. They remember the old yellow pages and think their online business is still relevant.


    All that money wasted on pointless subscription, could have got some good converting leads from google adwords for the same money. As opposed to diddly squat.

    My word.... I wish I had known before we signed up.... A full year, all the promises under the sun and nothing... no benefit from them at all. Wish I had invested the money advertising locally...

    My nephew wasted money on yell for his business. Never got any thing from it at all. A very dated service.
