I and two other group members were assigned with redesigning Yelp's desktop app page in order to increase the number of monthly reviews on its platform, and how we can achieve this. We focused on adding elements that would improve the quality of life for users, as well as an original feature that will incentivize users to continue using their account

Proposed Solution
Consolidating the business page with drop-down menus to prevent needless scrolling and a shortcut to the reviews section through a scrolling tab on the right. Furthermore, a brand new feature: Yelp Rewards. Businesses can partner with Yelp by offering promos when users leave reviews on their page

Users either not compelled enough or find it a hassle to write reviews
Users only consider reviewing based off a really positive or negative experience. Would be more willing to review if provided incentives
Users typically use yelp to explore new options based on reviews and attached photos

User Persona
Hungry wants to find a new restaurant through Yelp. She decides on a restaurant but finds it difficult to navigate the surplus of info. She finally reaches the reviews, but she is having trouble with recommendations due to a lack of buzzwords and reviews with images.
Hungry has a good time, but does not leave a review because it was uneventful and not incentivized to do so. She closes Yelp and forgets about it until the next time she wants to eat out.
Pain Points
No incentive
Backtracking not easy
Crowded pages with no tabs
