Click-to-call capabilities afford site visitors the ability to instantly dial phone numbers listed on your web page by pressing the number and hitting call. Imagine being able to put your users in touch with you at the push of a button… In this article, I’ll show you how you can add this capability to your website in less than 2 minutes!
Adding click-to-call to a microsite is a fairly straightforward process and consists of formatting the link and specifying the device to target.
Once we’ve created a page we declare the href as follows:
<a href="tel:555-1212" target="_self">Description</a>
Make sure to update the telephone number and replace “Description” with the link description. Also, don’t remove target=”_self” in the link.
Just upload the file to your server and visit the page from an iPhone or other modern smartphone to test it out.
