Zoom, the hugely popular video conferencing service, now has its own Duda widget. Add it to your sites and give your clients an easy, quick, and effective way to engage with site visitors.

With so many people working from home due to the coronavirus, it’s more important than ever for companies to find creative ways of engaging with their customers and conveying their core business values. One way millions of people are doing this is via Zoom, the video conferencing service that’s free, easy to use and accessible on every device.



Zoom is one of the top downloads on both Google Play and the Apple App store. If your clients aren’t using it yet, now is the perfect time to talk with them about creative ways of engaging with their client base via video conferencing on their sites.

Your clients can even monetize online meetings by adding a PayPal widget to make collecting payment easy, and set the Zoom meeting with a password that is sent after payment is received.

Zoom is a great tool for attracting new visitors, creating a database of email addresses for future communications, and solidifying your client's reputation in their field.
