This snippet differs depending on whether or not your website’s phone number uses a class name to display a phone number.

Scene 1: Phone number uses a class name. (Easy go!)Scene 2: Phone number does not use a class name. (If you can add a class name without messing it up, go ahead!)

Kinda a little technical, so gauge up your savviness.

CREATE PHONE NUMBERSNIPPET (SCENE 1)

REGALIX INC.

Scene 1: Phone number uses a class name

<body onload = “_googWcmGet(‘header_phone_number’,’1-800-624-4488’)”>

<span class=“header_phone_number”>1-800-624-4488</span>

Example:

Page 14: 12121212

CREATE PHONE NUMBERSNIPPET (SCENE 2) (1/2)

REGALIX INC.

Scene 2: Phone number does not use a class name

Concept: In this scenario, there’s no class name associated with the phone number, making it impossible to call the class name directly in the _googWcmGet function as we did in scene 1.

Therefore we have to manually configure this using a javascriptfunction, which in summary will basically be responsible for replacing your phone number with your Google forwarding number.

Carefully analyze and understand the javascriptfunction call implementation.

<script type="text/javascript">var callback = function(formatted_number, unformatted_number ) {// formatted_number: number to display, in sameformatting as number// passed to _googWcmGet(). e.g ‘1-800-444-5555’ in this case// unformatted_number: number to display without any formatting. e.g.// ‘18004445555’

var phoneNumberDom = document.getElementById("number");phoneNumberDom phoneNumberDom.innerHTML = "“;phoneNumberDom.appendChild(document.createTextNode(formatted_number));};</script>

<body onload="_googWcmGet(callback, '1-800-123-4567')">

<span id="number">1-800-123-4567</span>

VERIFY YOURIMPLEMENTATION

REGALIX INC.

Well there’s only one way to verify that you’ve set this up correctly.

It can take up to an hour for your ads to be enabled for this conversion action. If you'd like to make sure it's working, you can do a search that brings up your ad, then click the ad to visit your website (you'll be charged for the click). Your regular phone number should now be replaced with a Google forwarding number. If you're doing repeated tests, delete the "gwcm" cookie from your browser before clicking on an ad again.

FAQ

REGALIX INC.

1. After installation will the phone number always show on the website when a user comes from an ad.

Ans: Yes, This number’s showing is not affected by website landing page quality or any other factor.

2. If I returns to the site, would I still be “cookied” in a way where the Call forwarding number shows? Does this go away if they clear C and C?

Ans: Yes. The feature uses the AdWords Conversion Tracking cookie so as long as the cookie "sticks" the system should be able to serve the forwarding number. This however is not guaranteed (eg. the advertiser surfs around the web for a long period of time and comes back)

3. Is data available for clicks/impressions for the phone number showing on the website?

Ans: Nope, not at this time.

FAQ

REGALIX INC.

4. Will a conversion be registered if the phone number is not clicked and dialed directly from the website? E.g. a visitor directly dials out the number by typing it directly on their phones.

Ans: That’s the beauty of website call conversions, this conversion will be tracked.
