I know my customers very well, I know that most of them are not computer geeks. I know that sometimes they just want to talk to a real person. I’ve gone beyond just listing our ecommerce phone number, it’s part of our title.
People will get used to seeing your phone number in the upper left hand corner of the screen. If they ever have a question, they know they can pick up the phone and call. However, the real reason is a little more brilliant.
When someone searches for one of my terms, I’m not always in the #1 spot where I’d like to be. However, the phone number in my search engine listings makes me stand apart from everyone else. Searchers immediately know they can give us a call and get the answers that they need.
How Do I Add My Number To My Title?
All you have to do is edit your “title” tags. I have included a snapshot of my the first bit of my source. Depending on how your site is built, it can be done in different ways. Some store software has ways to edit the title within the program, others you will have to do it manually.
Warning: Don’t do this if you are not prepared to provide phone support…you will get calls.

Great advice!
Yeah, you better be ready for the phone calls especially when your phone # is so readily accessible. I can just imagine how many calls you must get.
