Do You Use Phone Call Tracking On Your Website?

How Do You Track Phone Calls Coming From Your Website?

As a business owner, you allocate your budget into many different digital marketing tools such as social media ads and search engine optimization. Now the fruits of your labor are coming in the form of phone calls and soon you see an increase in revenue. As your business grows, you not only want the best marketing tool but also great accuracy. Call tracking tools are a great way to measure effectiveness. For example, you can set one phone number on your Facebook ad and a different phone number on your Google Search Network Ad. After a period of time, you might see that people are calling the Facebook ad number more than the Google Search number. As a result, you will want to allocate more of your budget towards your Facebook ad.  There are many call tracking tools that can help you measure effectiveness but which ones are the best for your business?
