"We continued to see strong momentum from our product-led strategy as our team delivered another quarter with a number of record-breaking results," said Jeremy Stoppelman, Yelp's co-founder and chief executive officer. "Third quarter net revenue reached a new high, driven by record advertising revenue in our services category as service pros spent more on Yelp than ever before, 25% growth in our self-serve channel and a 9% increase in ad clicks year over year."
