what Do You Need to Set Up Business Call Forwarding from Your Website?
Normally, you can just add a phone number to your WordPress website or online store. Your website visitors can use the phone number to make a call.
However, regular phone services don’t come with advanced features like call forwarding, business hours, call waiting, etc. Plus, they cost a lot more even for even basic features like basic call forwarding.
For proper business call forwarding, you’ll need a smart business phone service provider.
We recommend using Nextiva. It is the best business phone service on the market and allows you to easily manage your business calls at much lower costs than landline or mobile phone services.
Note: We use Nextiva at WPBeginner for our business phone number.
Nextiva provides VoIP phone service, which means instead of landlines it uses the internet to make and receive phone calls.
Using VoIP allows you to reduce costs and take advantage of advanced features like call forwarding, call recordings, voicemail, call waiting, and more. Plus, you can choose a number in any location or get a toll-free number.
More importantly, you can manage calls on your existing mobile phone, computers, or even a desk phone too.
You can even share one number with multiple team member which is great for remote teams like ours.
That being said, let’s take a look at how to set up business call forwarding from your website.
