How to track calls from your .tel?

May 21st, 2009 dottel No comments

If you need to know how many people use the phone numbers that you publish on your .tel, you can subscribe to a service called “remote call forwarded phone number” or “market extension line”.

Most phone companies offer this service, which gives you a tracking phone number that you put into .tel. When somebody uses that number, the call is forwarded to your actual line, but call duration and the total number of calls is tracked by the phone company. You then get a report with all the data to demonstrate how your .tel phone line is working.

If your phone company does not provide the service you need, setup a tracking line forwarded to a toll-free number, which will provide you with similar statistics. Most phone companies charge for the tracking number service, but it’s usually a relatively small investment that can give you a lot of useful information.
