• Includes a new Leads API to integrate with existing customer management tools.

Yelp Guaranteed for multi-location businesses:

• Offers up to $2,500 in coverage if something goes wrong with a project booked through Request a Quote.
• Available in popular categories like contractors, HVAC, plumbers and movers.

Expanded ad formats:

• Spotlight video ads now appear in business page photo galleries.

New measurement tools:
