At Yelp, we want our users to be matched with the best business, providing satisfied customers. Today, we are only able to promote the best matched business of choice to the users. However, this might not match the user’s expectations but only be the best of all existing choices. Therefore, we will use analysis in the area of text and sentiment to identify areas of improvement for businesses to be a better match to customer expectations. As customer expectations would be better met, we are hopeful that they would influence their friends to be a supporter of Yelp as well.
