Yelp Seeks a Buyer Amid Slow Growth, Rising Costs

Wall Street Journal: Yelp is exploring a sale as the company at the top of many Internet search results struggles to post strong growth with users and advertisers. The San Francisco-based site was willing five years ago to go it alone despite an acquisition offer from Google. Today, it is said to be working with investment bankers and sounding out potential buyers. A deal isn’t imminent, and may not happen at all.
