Germany’s market leader for bonus collecting has just released a new version for its application for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch. The latest Payback-App, in cooperation with Das Örtliche, now offers users theme channels for local search.

Yelp: Unternehmen dürfen Bewertungen kommentieren
Wie bereits berichtet, kündigte Yelp Anfang April an, eine Kommentarfunktion für Anbieter einzurichten. Diese ist jetzt online.

GelbeSeiten.de: Leading online branch directory
“GelbeSeiten remains clearly the number one of branch directories – online and offline”, recently announced by GelbeSeiten Marketing GmbH in a press release. This is supported by the current data (regarding the online sphere) released by the Arbeitsgemeinschaft Online Forschung (aka AGOF).
The statement concerns the conclusions of the AGOF, the leading online marketer in Germany. The AGOF publishes quarterly the market media study “Internet facts“. The latest evaluation appeared mid December 2008, covering the 3rd quarter 2008.
This analysis counted an average of 3,05 million unique visitors monthly to GelbeSeiten, for the period July – September 2008. This is 19% up from the 2nd quarter total million unique visitors. Y=The portal thus moved up to position 33 in the study, and became the most visited site of its kind during this period, at least in a limited field. This was discussed by Uwe Frigg, COO of GelbeSeiten Marketing GmbH, in a press report. “Contrary to other competitors, we do not obscure our market by combining our field of expertise of branch directories and telephone directories, with private customer data.
Moreover, GelbeSeiten is the only one of the studied local search services that exclusively offers searches of commercial addresses. In comparison with other local search services analyzed by AGOF, GelbeSeite was actually trumped by DasTelefonbuch (place 15), DasOertliche (place 15) and meinestadt.de (place 17). Lower ranked were Qype (place 58 with an average 1,49 million users), tying with Klicktel (also 1,49 million users). GoYellow was even further down the list at place 65 and pointoo at place 101.
