Adding click-to-call, click-to-text, and click-to-email links or buttons to your website or marketing materials makes it easier for people to get in touch and improves accessibility. Visitors can call, text, or email you with a single tap. Here's how to set up each one.
Click-To-Call Buttons
To add a click-to-call button that lets users start a phone call with a single click or tap, follow these steps. Add a button element to your webpage or marketing material. Edit the button text to indicate the action, e.g., "Call Us Now."
Select the button, and in the properties or settings, look for the Button Actions option; in the dropdown choose the "Call" action. Enter the phone number you want users to call when they click the button.
Save your changes.
Click-To-Text Buttons
To add a click-to-text button that opens the user's default messaging service, follow these steps. Add a button element to your webpage or marketing material. Edit the button text to encourage users to send a text message, e.g., "Text Us."
Select the button, and in the properties or settings, look for the option to add a link or action. Choose the "SMS" action. Enter the phone number you want users to send a text message to when they click the button.
Save your changes.
Click-To-Call Text Links
To create a text link that starts a phone call when clicked or tapped, follow these steps. Add a paragraph or text element to your webpage or marketing material. Type the phone number.
Highlight the entire phone number text. Click the "Add A Link" icon (usually looks like a chain link) in your text editor. In the link URL field, type "tel:" followed by the phone number, including the country code (e.g., tel:+011234567890 for an international number). Hit Save to create the link.
Click-To-Email Links
To create a text link that opens the user's default email client with a pre-addressed email, follow these steps. Add a paragraph or text element to your webpage or marketing material. Type the text you want to link, such as "Email Us."
Highlight the text. Click the "Add A Link" icon in your text editor. In the link URL field, type mailto: followed by the email address you want users to send emails to (e.g., mailto:example@example.com). Hit Save to create the link.
Adding click-to-call, click-to-text, and click-to-email features to your website or marketing materials makes a real difference to how customers interact with you. These tools simplify communication and make it straightforward for people to reach out. When customers can contact you in one tap, you're improving engagement and showing them that their time matters.
