About BOC Citysearch.com's Best of Citysearch gives locals the opportunity to vote for their favorite businesses in categories like Restaurants, Nightlife, Shopping, Services and Hotels. At the start of a set voting period, the polls are launched with nominations made by Citysearch editors. Throughout the voting period, visitors to the Citysearch.com website are invited to vote for their favorites from the nominee list in each category or, if they don't see their favorites on the list, to nominate a business they would like to include. After the voting period is over, Citysearch tallies the votes, verifies the vital information of the top 10 recipients of votes in each poll and then unveils the results: the best in each city as voted by the people who live there.
