LiveDeal, Inc. (www.livedeal.com), a subsidiary of YP Corp. (OTCBB:YPNT) and one of the nation's leading free local online classifieds and yellow pages marketplaces, today announced the addition of feedback ratings for its online yellow pages and premium store business listings. LiveDeal users can now post feedback ratings on more than 13.5 million local businesses including restaurants, dentists, vets, kennels, plumbers, and electricians that are listed in LiveDeal's online yellow pages.

Using the online yellow pages, consumers can search for local businesses that they have interacted with and then select the "Rate This Store" feature to share information regarding their vendor experiences with fellow LiveDeal members. This new feedback ratings system offers LiveDeal users the added security of reviewing feedback before purchasing goods or services.

"We are excited to be adding this new feature to our already vibrant local online marketplace. By helping our members share their knowledge with one another, we will ultimately strengthen the entire online community's local experience at LiveDeal.com."

After searching for a local business or premium store on LiveDeal's yellow pages, customers have the opportunity to rate their experience on a scale ranging from Outstanding (five points) to Average (three points) to Terrible (one point). Additionally, space is provided for detailed personal comments. All comments are permanently stored online for all LiveDeal users to review at any time.

"LiveDeal's mission is to build a marketplace that connects local businesses and consumers in the most quick, easy and efficient manner as possible," said Dan Coury, CEO of YP Corp. and LiveDeal, Inc.
