Title: Alexa Business Info
Post by: seast91 on January 03, 2018, 09:51:43 am

Does anyone know where Alexa gets local business info? I have read it is YELP but there is a discrepancy. If I ask for nearby businesses I get my own business with Yelp info (correct opening times etc.) but if I ask for opening times the information returned is out of date and clearly from a different source?

I want to update this source but i am struggling to find out where this is?

I googled. They do use yelp. Well that's an FYI for me, I thought they use google. But since you are in UK. You obviously updated the UK yelp and not the US yelp? Maybe the US yelp is what it's pulling up, who knows. What's your business name? I am in US, I can check it for you.
