What Is a Click-to-Call Link?
A click-to-call link allows visitors to call you directly from your website by simply clicking a link. This feature is especially useful for users browsing your site on a mobile device, as it will automatically open their phone's dialer with your number pre-filled.
How Do I Create a Click-to-Call Link?
To create a click-to-call link, follow these steps:
- In your website editor, select the area where you want to add the call link (such as a page, blog post, contest, or sidebar).
- Insert a hyperlink using the following format:
<a href="tel:1234567890">Call Us Now</a>
Replace 1234567890
with your actual phone number, including the area code. Do not use spaces or dashes.
- Save or publish your changes.
Example
If your phone number is (555) 123-4567, your link would look like this:
<a href="tel:5551234567">Call Us Now</a>
Additional Tips
- Test the link on both desktop and mobile devices. On desktop, the link may prompt to open a calling application (like Skype), while on mobile it will open the phone dialer.
- You can customize the link text to fit your needs, such as "Call the Studio" or "Contact Sales."
