About besti:

Many people rely on online reviews to decide where to shop, eat, and go out. However, these reviews can be biased or fake. besti aims to provide a more authentic and reliable source of recommendations by only allowing users to share their absolute favorite local businesses.

By curating a list of top-rated places recommended by friends and trusted sources, besti helps users discover new and hidden gems in their own neighborhoods.

In addition to supporting small businesses and promoting a sense of community, using besti can also save users time and money. They won't have to sift through countless mediocre options or risk trying a subpar establishment.

besti also offers an added layer of accountability. Since users can only share their favorite places, businesses that make the cut are more likely to be high quality and provide excellent service. This can help drive up standards in the local business scene.

Overall, besti is a win-win for both users and local businesses. It helps users find the best of the best, while also providing small businesses with valuable word-of-mouth advertising.
