This growing trend started approximately five years ago and has now come into standard practice, with mini contact forms under the left navigation buttons, or on the very bottom of the site above the footer.<\/p>\n<p>These mini forms typically consist of a \u2018name\u2019, \u2018phone\u2019 and \u2018email\u2019 field, and then at the very most a small \u2018message\u2019 field for you to input details.<\/p>\n<h3>Why use Mini Contact Forms?<\/h3>\n<p>Very simple, the more times you can expose your web visitor to something the higher the chances are it will make some sort of impression on him and cause him to do something, in this case, fill out your form. Which for you is the whole purpose for your website anyway (driving in business). Your form can say \u2018free request\u2019 or just plain \u2018contact us\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>If you couple your mini contact form with a good \u2018call to action\u2019 or even a special offer then you are really on a roll and will get attention from your visitors. It is important to remember that you have to actually tell your visitors what to do, if you don\u2019t you are missing out on reaches for your service.<\/p>\n<h3>How do I do it? I don\u2019t know HTML<\/h3>\n<p>Fear not, you needn\u2019t go to Barnes &amp; Noble, buy a copy of HTML for Dummies and then go crazy trying to learn how to make a contact form. If you are a customer with us at Clear Imaging we can do it for you, as this is part of our standard website maintenance service.
