Global online business directory company Hotfrog has announced a strategic partnership with Yext (NSYE: YEXT), the global digital knowledge management pioneer, that will see the Hotfrog Websites App featured in the new Yext App Directory.

The Yext App Directory allows customers to connect digital knowledge from Yext with software systems across the enterprise.

Hotfrog is one of over 25 app partners on the Yext App Directory, with others including Hubspot, Smartling, Domo and Zendesk.

The Hotfrog Website App, powered by Hotfrog owner Moboom’s proprietary web-building platform, allows businesses to import and sync Yext Knowledge Engine™ data into the Moboom platform, which builds the customer a modern, customisable, mobile responsive website utilising their own data.

“This is a simple and effective solution that makes it very easy for a small business to enhance their online website presence quickly and inexpensively”, said Moboom CEO & Founder, Mr Gavin Burnett.

“We understand that SME business owners are busy and not necessarily technology proficient enough to build and manage their own websites. The combination of Yext, Hotfrog and Moboom eliminates a lot of the pain a small business owner can experience when creating and maintaining a modern, professional looking web presence,” he added.

“Hotfrog’s integration in the Yext App Directory gives businesses the ability to quickly create and publish a mobile-friendly website using their digital knowledge from Yext,” said Marc Ferrentino, Chief Strategy Officer of Yext.

“Deep, accurate digital knowledge, from locations to store hours to products sold, is critical to reach customers in intelligent search, and so we’re proud to give businesses a new tool to leverage this data on their own websites.”

Moboom’s websites are secure on Amazon’s AWS servers and are Google-friendly and searchable.
