9 in every 10 Internet consumers worldwide (90%) trust recommendations from people they know

These are the results from a recent Nielsen survey that looked at recommendations online and the effect of social commerce.

You may or may not realise it, but once you visit somewhere that others haven’t, this makes you an expert as you now know more about it than them.

Lookaly then gives you the tools, via reviews and recommendations, to share your expert knowledge with friends and others because it’s not just friends who trust your opinion, the Nielsen survey also reports that 70% of people trust consumer opinions posted online.

I certainly look at and respect the opinions of you, the Lookaly ‘experts’, and use it as a basis whether to try out new places or not. Without Lookaly, I may never have discovered Boojum, or The Garrick Bar (gasp!).

We hope that the extensive input from like-minded experts on our site has helped you discover cool places around Northern Ireland too, and all we can say is keep it going. You’re the expert so don’t be afraid to speak up.

Is there anywhere you’ve tried out recently based solely on a good Lookaly review?
