Begun over a decade ago, Yelp has stuck pretty well to its roots as a business recommendation network, while adding a number of social and mobile elements along the way.

So how big has Yelp become? In our latest digital statistics post, we spotlight a bunch of interesting Yelp statistics.

Here are a few facts and figures about Yelp’s visitors, reviews, mobile usage and more. As always, we’ll be adding and updating semi-regularly as more statistics become available.

This report is a digital collection of every Yelp statistic I have curated over the years as of the end of March 2018. 65 of them including stats for:

Yelp User Totals
Yelp Reviews
Yelp Mobile
Yelp Revenue
Etc.- all in one place

I try to go through each and every stat regularly and update as much as possible, but we all know that some stats are easier to track down than others. As always, every stat is linked to its original source and has the source date listed.

Please note that some of these Yelp statistics and facts are easier to find than others. A few of these stats come from Yelp’s own reports, but some are based on news reports and not official company tallies. Basically, this is the best I can find and I don’t guarantee anything to be 100% accurate.
