Searching Yelp

Yelpers can (and do) search Yelp for pretty much everything, and we're always working to improve our search tool so that we can deliver the most relevant local results to our users.

• How does Yelp determine its search results?
• What’s the best way to search for something on Yelp?
• Why do businesses that are permanently closed sometimes still appear in Yelp search results?
• Why isn't the business page I added appearing when I search for it?
