In this Blog, I described how to use an embeddable contact form on your website, web page or blog.
If you are looking to setup copy and paste embeddable form for handling customer queries. Then you are at right place.

Need of contact forms

The embeddable contact form is a great way to display a contact form anywhere on your site. Most of the websites have a contact form or any other kind of form for handling customer queries.
If you have a website and you are not using any contact forms(s). Then think twice.
because Contact form can be used for all sort of communication. Whether it be an Official message, Query about some product, or maybe just some random weather chat.
Let’s say you want to setup one on your website.

Problem:

Even if you want a contact form, it is quite tedious to maintain all those queries and then respond to all those queries.
But how One can easily setup such form(s). The first thought that comes to mind is to create a form from scratch then maybe email that data to some email address then filter mail to find that data then reply. Lot’s of work.
What if there is an easy solution, like copy paste some code & bam all those queries, are at one place and I can easily reply them while eating snacks.
But this solution doesn’t exist, does it?
Yes, it exists. That what’s this blog is about.

Better way to create forms:

All you need to do is to sign up here or login to your UVdesk helpdesk account.
Goto App section, install Formbuilder app, Add new Form, save the form and Copy Embed code and paste it on your website. That’s it, you have successfully setup contact/query form solution for your customers. Now all queries/questions via that form will be converted to ticket(s) on your UVdesk support center. Then, you can login to your support admin panel and manage all customer queries/questions. You can also do awesome stuff like automate response to customer(s) and reply from there.
