The Negative Impact of Yelp on Small Businesses

Yelp has become a significant player in the online review landscape, but its influence on small businesses can often be detrimental. This is why businesses are leaving the platform.

 

Below are some key areas where Yelp’s impact is felt most acutely.

No Control Of Your Yelp Business

One of the most troubling aspects of Yelp is that businesses have little to no control over their own listings. When a business is created or claimed on Yelp, it automatically generates a profile that can be filled with reviews—both positive and negative—by anyone with internet access. 

 

Business owners often find that their hours, services, or contact details are incorrect, which can mislead potential customers. Anyone can leave a review without the business’s consent, leading to potentially damaging comments from disgruntled customers or even competitors.

 

This situation creates a scenario where businesses must actively monitor and manage their Yelp profiles, often without the ability to remove unwanted content. 

Won’t Delete Business Pages

One frustrating thing about Yelp is that they won’t delete business pages,(link) even if you ask. They say it’s because the information is public and of public interest.

 

This can cause problems like:

  • Reputational damage: Closed businesses or those with new owners can still have outdated pages, showing old or negative reviews that don’t reflect the current reality.
  • Confusion for customers: People might see incorrect details or reviews, leading to misunderstandings and mistrust.
  • Stress for owners: Business owners often feel stuck, unable to control how their brand looks online.

For new owners, this can be especially tough. If you’re trying to rebrand or rebuild a business, an old Yelp page with a negative history can make it harder to start fresh and gain customer trust.

Yelp's Filtering Algorithm

Yelp uses a review filtering system to spot fake or biased reviews. While the idea sounds good, it has some serious flaws. The system often hides real positive reviews, leaving businesses at a disadvantage.

Many business owners say Yelp seems to highlight negative reviews while burying positive ones. For example, one business(link) had 101 reviews, but only 37 were visible—nearly half of them negative. The rest, mostly positive, were hidden in the “not recommended” section where few customers ever look.

Creative 7 Designs(link) also shared their frustration, saying,, “some of our reviews have vanished from Yelp. We know this already, that’s why we’re writing about this.” 

This system can make businesses with happy customers look worse than they are. As one owner put it, “It’s a system that misrepresents our businesses and distorts the truth. We work hard to serve our customers, and Yelp’s algorithm completely undermines that effort.” 

For businesses, this process can be stressful and unfair, distorting how customers see them and undermining their hard work.

Paying for Yelp Visibility

Yelp’s advertising model has faced criticism, with some business owners feeling pressured to pay for better treatment on the platform.

Yelp offers paid ads that let businesses stand out more. However, many small business owners claim that if they don’t buy ads, their positive reviews might get hidden, while negative ones are more visible.

This raises concerns about fairness. Should businesses have to pay just to be represented honestly on a platform they didn’t choose? Some owners even believe that not advertising could lead to lower star ratings because of how reviews are displayed.

These concerns leave many small businesses feeling like Yelp’s system is unfair, even bordering on unethical. Instead of being a neutral platform, it can feel more like paying for fair treatment.

2) Understand the Yelp Content Guidelines

Yelp has strict content guidelines and will remove reviews that are inappropriate, irrelevant, promotional, or infringe on privacy or intellectual property. Common reasons for review removal include:

  • Inaccurate or misleading details.
  • Conflict of interest
  • Competitor or ex-employee
  • Lack of personal experience
  • Privacy violations
  • Promotional content
  • Incorrect business
  • Extraordinary circumstances
  • Fake reviews

3) Submit Removal Request to Yelp

Go to your business page and click on the “Reviews” tab on the left side of your dashboard. Browse through your reviews to find the one you’d like to report.

 

Once you’ve identified the review, click on the three dots next to it. From the menu that appears, select “Report Review.” 

 

After clicking “Report Review,” you’ll be asked to choose the reason for removal. Select the most relevant option based on Yelp’s content guidelines. You may also be asked to provide additional details or evidence to support your case, such as screenshots or links. The more clearly you can tie your request to Yelp’s guidelines, the higher the chances of your review being removed.

 

After you submit your request, Yelp’s moderation team will evaluate whether the review violates their policies. Keep in mind that this process may take a few days, so be patient.

 

If you don’t receive a response within a reasonable timeframe—typically within a week—follow up with Yelp’s support team by sending them a polite email to ensure your request is being processed.
