QR stands for <em>Quick Response<\/em>, and <strong>QR codes are matrix bar codes<\/strong> (or, more simply, patterns) designed to be machine-readable \u2013 this is why they are in black and white, or, more rarely, in other high-contrast colour combinations. They are related to bar codes, but are laid out in two dimensions and can typically contain much more data.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;28px&#8221;][vc_column_text]They were originally developed by a Japanese automotive company in order to track vehicles and their components during manufacture and distribution. Nowadays, however, most <strong>everybody has a powerful digital camera in their pocket<\/strong>, and QR codes and smartphones make a great match. You could store an URL as a QR code, and post it anywhere online or in the real world: in print, on posters, public transport, business cards, and, within half a second, you can have a new visitor to your website, and they don\u2018t even need to bother with typing.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;28px&#8221;][vc_column_text]Another advantage of QR codes is that<strong> they retain their usefulness even if they are damaged<\/strong>, under certain circumstances, which is why they are so often used printed on paper.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;28px&#8221;][vc_column_text]A final thing we\u2018d like to point out is that QR codes come in two distinct flavours: static and dynamic. The difference between them is self-explanatory: <strong>a static QR code cannot be edited once it is generated<\/strong>, while <strong>a dynamic one can be changed however many times is required.<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;68px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"qodef-h4\"><a id=\"why-use-a-qr-code\"><\/a>Why Use a QR Code<\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]We have touched upon this above, but <strong>QR codes\u2018 machine readability makes them great for mobile users:<\/strong> instead of typing, the user simply scans a code and off they go to wherever you want them.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;28px&#8221;][vc_column_text]Creating a QR code <strong>does not require any coding knowledge whatsoever<\/strong>: there are online code generators and even plugins that can generate the code for you &#8211; more on that in a bit.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;28px&#8221;][vc_column_text]QR codes are <strong>typically a black and white matrix<\/strong>, but that is not mandatory. Most QR code generators have various colour and customization options, and can be<strong> fit into larger graphics on your website as well as in print.<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;28px&#8221;][vc_column_text]This makes QR codes <strong>great for encoding coupons, discounts, and similar marketing campaigns<\/strong>, as well as personal identifiers (for ticket holders, say). As we have mentioned before, they can also encode URLs to both your website and your social media platforms, including YouTube videos.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;28px&#8221;][vc_column_text]Their <strong>small size and ease of scanning<\/strong> makes them excellent for mobile users, but there is an in-built drawback: while they are machine-readable, they are <strong>not human-readable<\/strong>. This is why you shouldn\u2018t rely solely on them, unless you are only counting on mobile users.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;68px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"qodef-h4\"><a id=\"using-qr-codes-in-wordpress\"><\/a>Using QR Codes in WordPress<\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Finally, we come to the nitty-gritty.

You can <strong>encode a coupon link<\/strong> (generated by a <a href=\"https:\/\/qodeinteractive.com\/magazine\/coupon-code-plugins-for-wordpress\/\">coupon plugin<\/a>, for instance) into a QR code and make it easy for mobile users to claim their discount.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;72px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"qodef-h5\">Contact Links And Information<\/h3>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]This is the online use case which corresponds to <strong>using your QR code on a business card<\/strong> or stationery: website visitors who want to save your contact information can always take a screenshot, but a simple QR code could hold a <a href=\"https:\/\/css-tricks.com\/snippets\/html\/mailto-links\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">mailto link<\/a> or even be set up to text you immediately.
