Thinking about adding a call me back facility onto our website. I want to hear people's thoughts on this facility.

Do you use it when on a website if you are interested in a product ?

Or do you email instead ?

Interested to hear your thoughts.

I email or call.

Might be worth putting up a poll in P&P to get a better response then come here for advice on which way to go once you've got an idea of what the unwashed masses do.

Depends if the product or service is of an urgent nature or not. In most cases I would probably phone up.

Get an 0800 number instead, then people can call you and they don't have to give out their phone number.

(it costs you more than making a call out but is usually more likely to generate those calls...)

But put down a standard 01/02/03 number too as people using mobiles will be pissed off otherwise (well I would and often am) as the 08 numbers never come out of your plan :-(

We get something like 5-600 hits on our site (car/home insurance) per day and maybe 1 or 2 complete the form.

If the ratios that low on a busy transactional site I can't imagine it getting much better.
