# Website getting traffic but no calls? 9 fixes for contractors

By Banish Angural · Published June 18, 2026 · Updated November 9, 2026

> If your site gets visitors but few calls, check whether the traffic is right (location and search terms), then the basics: a visible tap-to-call number on mobile, a clear headline, a page that matches what they searched, proof such as reviews and photos, a short form, fast loading, and whether calls are actually being answered and tracked.

1. **Check the traffic is real customers.** In Search Console and Google Ads, look at the searches and locations. Traffic from DIY searches or other provinces won’t call.
2. **Phone number in the header,** tap-to-call on mobile.
3. **A headline that says what you do and where,** in plain words.
4. **Send each visitor to the matching page.** Furnace searchers should land on the furnace page.
5. **Show proof:** reviews, photos of real jobs, licence and insurance.
6. **Shorten the form:** five fields or fewer.
7. **Speed up the page** on mobile.
8. **Answer the phone.** Listen to a few calls or check missed calls. Many "no calls" problems are missed calls.
9. **Track properly,** so you know what’s actually happening.
