Treder Local Business Contact Bar
Treder Local Business Contact Bar is a focused WordPress plugin for local business websites that need the most important contact actions to stay easy to find. It adds a floating bar with quick links for calling, texting, email, quote requests, directions, and business hours.
The goal is practical: help visitors take action faster without turning a small business website into a complicated lead system. For many local service businesses, the most valuable website actions are still simple ones: call, text, request a quote, get directions, or check whether the business is open.
Created by Ben Treder for practical WordPress sites that need clearer customer contact paths.
Free plugin features
What the free plugin does
A simple contact bar can make a local business website easier to use because the main actions stay close to the visitor, especially on mobile.
Call button
Add a direct phone action so mobile visitors can call without searching for the phone number.
Text button
Add an SMS action for customers who prefer messaging before calling or filling out a form.
Email button
Let visitors open their email app from the contact bar when email is the best next step.
Quote button
Point visitors to a quote form, contact page, booking page, estimate page, or service request page.
Directions button
Send customers to a map, directions page, Google Business Profile link, or location page.
Business hours
Show business hours from the bar so visitors can quickly check availability before reaching out.
Why a contact bar can help a local business site
This plugin is built around a common small business problem: the website may have contact details, but visitors still have to work too hard to find them.
Clearer action path
Visitors should not have to guess where to click when they are ready to call, text, request a quote, or get directions.
Better mobile usability
Many local visitors browse from a phone. A floating bar keeps important actions within reach without needing a large redesign.
Useful for service pages
For local service pages, quick action buttons can support the next step after a visitor reads about a service.
