Free tool · Website call check
Is your website losing calls?
Put in your homepage address. In a few seconds this website call check reads the page the way a phone gets it and tells you, in plain English, what helps a visitor call you and what gets in the way, with a one-line fix for each.
Free, no sign-up. I check the homepage of the address you enter, and I keep the address and the result so I can follow up.
Want a hand with these?
Most of these are small jobs. Tell me what the check found and I will tell you what it would take, from the person who would do the work.
What it looks at
What the website call check looks at
Twelve things on your homepage that decide whether a phone visitor ends up calling you. Each one is a small, specific fix, and none of them needs a new website.
Can a visitor reach you?
- A tap-to-call linkYour number linked with tel:, so one tap on a phone starts the call.
- A call link near the topIn the header or the first screen, not only in the footer.
- Your number, written outAs text, not inside an image, and matching the number the link dials.
- A form or booking linkFor the people who would rather not call, or who are looking after hours.
Does it work on a phone?
- Secure (HTTPS)No “Not secure” label, and the old http:// address forwards to the secure one.
- Made for phone screensA mobile viewport tag, so the page fits the screen and can still be zoomed.
- Server response timeHow long your server takes to start sending the page, redirects included.
- Page weightThe size of the page itself, before images, and whether it is compressed.
Will Google and visitors trust it?
- Title and descriptionWhat Google shows for your listing, instead of a snippet it guesses.
- Business details for search enginesLocalBusiness structured data with your name and phone number.
- Google Business Profile or mapA link to your reviews and directions, where many people look before they call.
- Copyright yearA footer that still says 2019 tells visitors nobody is minding the shop.
Why I built it
A website can look fine and still lose the call.
For a plumber, a law office or a contractor, the phone is usually where the work comes from. It is for me too: most of my own new projects have started with a call, not a form.
The trouble is that owners look at their own site on a computer, where everything seems fine. On a phone the number can be buried in the footer, written inside an image, or not linked at all. Nobody tells you. They just call the next business on the list.
Those are small fixes, and this check finds them in a few seconds. If it turns up something you would rather not fix yourself, that is what I do. I have built websites in Louisville since 2000, from small business websites to websites for plumbers, law firm websites and contractor websites. If your site is slow or broken rather than just missing a few things, start with WordPress repair.
Before you ask
Questions about the call check
What does the website call check look at?
Twelve things on your homepage: a tap-to-call link and where it sits, your number written as text, a form or booking link, HTTPS, the mobile viewport tag, server response time, page weight, your title and description, business structured data, a link to your Google Business Profile or a map, and the copyright year.
Is this a Google score?
No. There is no score, and it does not predict rankings. Each result is a plain rule of thumb, checked against the HTML your homepage sends. For Google’s own view of your site, use PageSpeed Insights and Search Console.
Do you keep the website address I check?
Yes. I keep the address you check and the result you see, so I can follow up if your site is losing calls. I never sell or share it. The checker reads your homepage once and does not keep a copy of the page. To stop robots from abusing the tool, a scrambled form of your IP address is kept for up to an hour so each visitor is limited to 10 checks an hour.
Why does a result look wrong for my site?
The check sees the HTML your server sends, before any JavaScript runs. A phone number shown by a script, a form loaded from another service, or a call-tracking number swapped in later will not show up, and some firewalls turn automated visitors away altogether. Call me and I will look at it by hand.
