- HeyLaughingBoy 16y agoI think if you asked 1000 people on the street, by far a greater percentage of them have heard of Angie's List than Yelp. I've been using the web since the days of ISPs providing a browser with their own brand (I'm looking at you, Netcom!) and email & Usenet before that. I still have never heard Yelp mentioned outside HN, but I hear "sponsored by Angieslist.com" on NPR all the time. Don't underestimate the power of offline marketing.
- there 16y agoi suppose it depends on the area. i'd say a far greater percentage of people around here (chicago) know of yelp than angieslist. businesses have yelp stickers on their front windows in these neighborhoods.
