Have you ever needed a roofer but had no where to start? Or maybe you were looking for a body shop, hair stylist or dentist but you had absolutely no idea how to decipher between the hundreds of businesses in these categories. I know I’ve been there and it can be very frustrating. But, lucky for you (and me) wimgo.com has a solution to this problem!

As you probably know, you’ve always had the ability to rate and review businesses on wimgo. But now we’re taking it one step further. If you have a Facebook account you can now ‘like’ something (i.e. event, movie, restaurant or business) on wimgo and that listing will appear on your Facebook profile and your home feed. This way, all of your friends can see what you recommend. You can also see which of your friends ‘like’ something when you’re viewing that particular something on wimgo. It’s a great way to share information about the best places to spend, or not to spend, your hard-earned cash.

Check it out today and start ‘liking’ away!
