Google Revamps Places Pages - Pushes Yelp and Other Review Sites Off The Places Results By on July 28, 2011

The importance of 3rd party review sites seems to have become less important... Google has raised the prominence of Google Reviews and dropped the relevance of 3rd party sites like Yelp and DemandForce. What does it all mean? We're probably going to be pursuing Google Reviews more and looking for 3rd party links less. Granted, links still help SEO but looking forward Google links seem to matter the MOST.
