3Click "Search" and a list of available numbers are returned along with their city and state. Once you decide which numbers you would like to use click "Buy Selected Numbers". These numbers are now set to your profile.
4Assign a Name and choose to direct your calls to a Destination Number. The Name can be anything you wish to name the numbers, but a good rule of thumb is to keep it relevant to the traffic source. In this case, we will name the numbers Dynamic Website Number as we are going to track all of the traffic coming to our site.
The Destination Number is typically your main business number, or the number you want your newly acquired tracking number to forward the call to when connected.
Choose whether you would like to see the Caller's Number or Tracking Number for the Caller ID, turn on Call Recording, set up a Call Greeting and/or Call Whisper..
5Select "Yes" for Dynamic Phone Number Insertion. Select the radio button for Dynamic Number Pool and select "All Traffic" to assign your numbers into the Dynamic Number Pool that was automatically created for you with your WhatConverts account.
Review the phone number settings and click "Update".
6Check your Swap Number in your All Traffic Dynamic Number Pool to ensure it is the phone number on your site that is currently hard-coded (or static) on your site.
If there is no Swap Number or it is incorrect, click the "gear icon" at the far right of the All Traffic pool. Type in the correct Swap Number with no punctuation and click "Update".
