AdviceYard.com Launches a NY Centric Social Platform for Peer to Peer Advice
AdviceYard.com - Q&A takes on a new and more interactive 2.0 approach with social networking, organized communities, and inexpensive advertising.
New York City, NY (PRWEB) May 13, 2009 -- AdviceYard.com -- a new local Yahoo Answers competitor -- beta launches its community based platform, providing members with an easier way to get questions answered while social networking.
A New Approach to Social Advice
The site is a New York centric version of Yahoo Answers where users can post and answer questions about a variety of topics. It also incorporates social media elements, such as the ability to create a profile, join a topic specific community, instant message, and make contacts.
AdviceYard is the only community based Q&A site offering freelancers and business owners a way to economically advertise to their target audience. Unlike Yahoo Answers and other Q&A based sites, AdviceYard offers a premium membership which provides the ability to post business listings for a one-time fee ($60 for 6 months or $100 for 1 year). These listings are indexed in up to (3) related communities, on the member's profile page, and on a dedicated business page. An example of a dedicated business page (in AdviceYard's "Entertainment & Media" community) can be found HERE.
AdviceYard is the next generation for practical social networking advice on a per-city basis. With AdviceYard, it's simple to post and answer questions, network with members across an array of industries, and seek-out their services in the real world.

| | - Post and answer questions.
