Just the way you would use a mail link:
<a href="mailto:example@example.com">Contact me</a>
You are able to use
<a href="tel:012345678">Call me</a>
To place phonecalls, i am assuming this also works on iOS ( Just tested on android ) Also maybe Skype has another way of handling these ones.
Good luck !
