Frequently Asked Questions

RipYell is a new way for the general public and organisations to communicate.

Organisations get a way to promote their projects and citizens get a way to find out what’s happening at a particular location or on a particular project.

RipYell allocates a unique code to every project which is displayed at the site. Passers-by see the code, and when they enter it at RipYell.com or using the RipYell App, all the details about your project are displayed.

RipYell works for virtually any type of project;

• Construction & building
• Public Works
• Businesses
• Events
• Real-estate
• Local council
• Developments
• Shows & Events

Construction and building projects use the service widely to allow people driving past to learn more about what’s happening here.

Event promoters use it to engage with wider audiences and gain extra exposure for their events.

Businesses of all sorts can use it to promote their products and services and interact with potential new customers.

Real-estate agents and home-owners can use to add a new dimension to the marketing of their home.

Local Councils use it to keep the community updated about particular projects going on in the local area such as road-works, housing developments and general council activities taking place.

Shows & Events can really benefit from using the service to promote what’s happening.

In fact, there really isn’t any limit to who can use the tool.

Anyone really. If you have a project which you want more exposure for or to keep the general public ‘in the loop’, be it a business, event, government or private development project, what-ever, then you should register on the RipYell Website.

It’s very simple.

To post your project go to ripyell.com and select “Post My Project” .

Choose the category which best suits your type of project. Enter the information and hit Submit.

Your information will be reviewed* and within a short time will appear on the live website where the general public can interact with you and access relevant information.

You will receive an email with your username and password. This will be for you to update information about the project as required.

You will also be sent a physical sign-board. This will be where your Unique RipYell Code will be printed. This is the signboard that you display at the site.

People who want to find our more information about what you’re up-to simply need to enter that code at RipYell.com and all the info you have entered will be on display.

To learn about a particular project that is displaying the RipYell Signboard simply enter the unique RipYell Code Number in the search field at RipYell.com and all the relevant information you are looking for will be displayed.

Both people posting projects and people wanting to learn about particular projects can make the process even easier by using the Free RipYell App. Open the App to display all RipYell projects in your area.

If you’re in charge of a project and want more people to know what you’re doing then post it on RipYell.com

If you see something happening, roadworks, construction, an event and it is displaying the RipYell sign then just enter the large unique number at Ripyell.com and you can find out what’s happening there?

• To promote your project.
• To inform the general public about events happening in their local area.
• To find out what’s going on.

Every approved project posted on RipYell is given a username and password. Just log-in and update the information as you need to.

Because, not only do people want to know more about projects happening in their neighbourhoods, they also have a right to know.

Posting information about projects which you are in part responsible for is an important way do share important information as well as promote the project to the community.

Well, you should encourage them to get one. Alternatively, contact us and we’ll encourage them to get one.

Yes!

Every project which has received a DA (development application) from council should display a RipYell signboard. The person/persons who applied for the DA should be able to collect their RipYell signboard from their local council and display it at the development site.

I went to my local council and they don’t know how to use the service?

No problem. Local councils are coming on board all the time because they realise this is such a powerful tool for them to ensure the community has all the information it needs about what’s happening locally. Contact us here and we’ll get your local council up and running.
