We’re using the US version of Hotfrog for this guide, but the steps outlined should apply to all country variants.

Creating a Hotfrog Account

The best way to start is by creating an account (if you don’t already have an account).

After selecting the country, follow the steps below to create your account.

1. Open hotfrog.com
2. Click the Sign In button in the top right.
   
3. On the next page you can log in if you have an account with Hotfrog. If not, click the yellow button at the bottom of the page that gives you the option to sign up for it.
   
   • Enter the required details and click Get Started.

     

4. You’ll then see a message telling you to expect an account verification email.

   

5. Go to your inbox to find the email from Hotfrog. It contains a URL to verify your email and set the password.

   

6. Click on this URL and choose your preferred password. Your password must be at least 8 characters long and contain both letters and numbers.

   

Claiming an existing page on Hotfrog

From your account dashboard

1. When you’re logged into your account, you’ll see two options: add a business and browse for a profile.
   
2. Click Find Now on the right.

   

3. Enter the company name or keyword/service and a location, then search for the existing profile.
   

   Note: If you search by category or keyword, Hotfrog will show you suggestions. This is not the case when you search by company name.
   

4. You’ll see a single result or a whole list of possible matches.
   
5. Once you see your listing, click the orange claim button or see the next page (if there are a large number of results).

   

6. First, Hotfrog offers you to update the listing for a monthly fee. If you are happy with that, you can proceed. If you only want to keep the base list, click “No thanks, I just want to claim this entry, not upgrade it.”

   

7. On the next page you have to confirm your profile. Select the appropriate option from the drop-down menu, check the “Terms and Conditions” option and check the “reCAPTCHA” box. Then click Confirm Now.

   

You are now verified. You can click Update My Profile Now and edit all the details and add more content.

From the main page

1. Go to hotfrog.com and search for the company.
   
2. You will be presented with a list of possible matches.
   
3. If you see your business in the list, you can click Claim this business right there.

   

4. Alternatively, you can click on the company name to view the profile in more detail.
   
5. At the top of the page, in the right corner, you will see the yellow “Claim this business” button.

   

6. From here, the rest of the steps are the same as from step 6 in the section above (Hotfrog will prompt you to update the entry). If you skip this option, you will either need to sign in or create the account and verify everything as described in the Account Creation section.
