Cakewalk! Click on the "Submit Link" button shown at the top right hand corner of every page. If you are a registered user enter your user ID and password details or select the New User option to proceed. Paste the URL of the story, photo or video, then tell us if it's a story, video or image and select the category you feel is the best suited for your link. On the next step add a short title and description, choose a thumbnail or upload an image (if options not given). Hit "Submit Story" and you're all set. If you selected "New User" option at the beginning then you will be asked to provide your email ID, username and password details.

Users invest alot of time and energy searching the best content on the web. Submitting duplicate stories is definitely not hot and happening, so we ask all Hotklixers to submit the original story instead of submitting a duplicate. Of course, there will be instances when you will find similar stories from different sources that are submitted to Hotklix. In those cases, we let our users determine which is the Hottest of all those similar stories and let them make the best one popular by voting it hot and giving it maximum views. However, if we find that users are consistently submitting duplicates, their accounts may be banned

There's only one way this could happen i.e. if the subsequent submission was from a different URL and/or had a different title and description - we do our best, but we're just not perfect and sometimes miss these. If you feel that the behavior was abusive - and you're sure the duplicate doesn't add a new perspective to the story - feel free to contact us and we'll look into your report.

As per our usage terms under the section "License to use User Material/ Content" under "Terms of Use and Grievance Redressal Policy" we reserve the right to remove content that is determined to be in violation of our Terms of Use at any time and only at our discretion.
