Phone number formatting - Periods vs Dashes

[WorkhorseMKT]

Are there any best practices on phone number formatting regarding using periods XXX.XXX.XXXX vs dashes XXX-XXX-XXXX? What about using parentheses on the area code (XXX)XXX-XXX?

This is regarding a phone number on a contact apge...

Hi there,

There's no standard format for online phone numbers although I've seen people recommending to stick with either dashes or periods, and to not use parenthesis.

The more important recommendation would be to make sure users can click to call directly on the phone number, as well as setting up tracking through analytics so you could see how many people called your business through your website.

Hope that helps!
