  1. This is great, but not as effective as the callback widget I’ve been using. I’ve had more results by adding the “callback tracker” widget because it let’s me call them instead…. which actually increased the amount of conversions I had!

    Still, it’s important to have some kind of CTA for calling, that’s more than just a phone number listed, whether it’s this call button, or a callback button.
