No. Our recommendation software is completely automated. No employee at Yelp has the ability to recommend or not recommend a business’s reviews. This approach is deliberate to avoid conflicts of interest. It applies the same uniform rules to every business and treats reviews of advertisers and non-advertisers exactly the same.

We hope to continually improve the recommendation software, and appreciate any feedback you may have.
