Yelp and Angieslist verification process

Hey everyone,


So I decided to do a rank and rent by ranking a page on yelp and angieslist. My profile for both were reviewed and then approved. But I keep getting emails and calls from representatives who want to verify my profile and discuss some profile options. I know there's probably more to it and I'm just not sure the kinds of questions they'll be asking. I don't think they would be happy to find out there's no real business and I'm just ranking a page for the leads. I also feel like if i ignore it, they might delete the profile. I don't know. Has anyone experienced this and how did you overcome this?

They are trying to sell you advertisements monthly most probably.

With Yelp, it's all about selling you advertising. That's their entire business. They are a "pay to play" company, they've been sued for it and they've won (google "Yelp class action lawsuits). My recommendation, don't spend money with them.

No experience with Angie's List.
