I am a heavy user of Yelp and like to see myself as a contributor, check out
Julio Miyares’ Yelp Reviews or else, look at that widget on the right hand side of the page cycling through all my reviews.
Nevertheless, I wonder, how much traffic is the self-proclaimed “New York Connoisseur” shunting over to Yelp when perhaps I can build and then keep that traffic to myself. I started thinking of that when I noticed that Super-Developer Dossy Shiobara was posting his superb Restaurant reviews both on Yelp and then on his own blog. Check this one out on a Turkish Restaurant find
The fact that Dossy appears to feel everything he finds in New Jersey is of 5 Star quality is immaterial to this. Instead, I like the fact that with good SEO which Dossy has in spades, perhaps those looking for the rare plums of good eats in Jersey will stumble upon his site.

Well, I am going to start the same technique here on my Musing site. I will “double publish” of course. I want my fans on Yelp to continue to benefit from my culinary wisdom.

What does the Brooklyn Diner post have to do with anything? Well that is the restaurant I was going to review but I will leave that to my next installment. Its been a long day.
