Updating your business number on your website

Adding your Rinkel number to your website is a great way to make sure clients can easily contact you. Here’s how to do it: 

  1. Log in to your website builder: Access the backend of your website. This could be WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, or any other platform you use. 
  2. Find the contact section: Go to the area where your current phone number is listed, or if you don’t have a phone number yet, go to the place where you have your other contact details. It’s usually in the header, footer or a dedicated contact page.
  3. Edit the contact information: Click on the edit button to change the details. Replace your old number with your new Rinkel number. 
  4. Save your changes: Make sure to save the updates so that your new number appears live on your website. 

How to make your business number clickable on your website?

Making your phone number clickable allows visitors to call you directly with just one click. Here’s how you can do it: 

  1. Use HTML code: You can add a HTML code to make your number clickable. If we want to make our business number 085 06 09 000 clickable, we would add ‘tel:’ before our business number. It would look like this:”tel:+31850609000” Make sure to always add your country code (+31 for NL) before your phone number.  
  2. Add the code to your website: Replace the phone number in the code with your business phone number and add the HTML code everywhere your phone number is displayed on your website. 
  3. Save and test: Save the changes and test the link. Open your website on your phone and click on the phone number to see if it will call.  

By following these steps, you’ll ensure that your clients can easily reach you through your website. Updating your contact details is a simple but effective way to maintain professional communication. 

Enhancing your email signature

Your email is also an important place to add your business number. Making it easy for clients and colleagues to reach you. Here’s how it works: 

  1. Open your email settings: Access the settings of your email provider (such as Gmail, Outlook, or another service). 
  2. Find the signature section: Look for the signature settings in your email account. This is usually under settings or preferences. 
  3. Edit your signature: Add your new Rinkel number to your existing signature. It’s best to place it below your name and job title for easy visibility. Don’t have an email signature yet? Now is a great time to update this together with your business number! Mention your first and last name, website, business number and your email address. 
  4. Save your changes: Make sure to save the updated signature so it appears in all your future emails.  

Make your business number clickable in your emails

To make your phone number clickable in your email signature, follow these steps: 

  1. Use the appropriate format: In the signature editor, type your phone number as you want it to appear. 
  2. Add a hyperlink: Highlight the phone number, then use the hyperlink option (usually represented by a chain icon) to add a link.  
  3. Insert the link: In the URL field, you type ‘tel:phonenumber’. For example, it could look like this using our business number: tel:+31850609000 
  4. Apply and save: Apply the hyperlink and save your changes. Now when someone clicks on your business number in an email, it will start a call directly.
