sms site- gateway

hi
i want to make an site from where users can send free sms
i want to make my own gateway not to pay for each sms..
i found something kannel.org but i dont know if helps..

any advices?

PS: i will use dedicated server for gateway i have domain host etc.. all stuf

 

You want to be a gateway i think u need to have a tie up the phone companies

 

from what i read i saw that i need dedicated to make gateway and use smsc protocol..
dont need to be conected to phone companyes or etc..

 

I think you need to connect to phone company in order to use their gateway.
If you don't want to used them gateway,then you need to create a API to used it and this way is time and money consuming.

 

So how exactly are these sms going to be processed ? if u dont connect to the mobile service providers gateway how exactly are these sms going to go through ?

 

SMSC protocol .. i create my own api and gateway ..??

 

visit few telecom companies web sites

i found few companies mentions sms gateway in the sites so u better look those things

normally they give apis

 

Is there any alternative to make up this kind of site without interfering with the Telecom companies such like using their API or something.

 

i want to make all not to user other gateway & api ..
i dont want to pay for each sms sent ..

 

fdns : do you know how the engine works instead showing what you want ?? sms engine are have a cost to cover.

 

In that case I think your only option is to steal a bunch of telephones and forward people's SMSes by hand.

You will not be able to send free SMSes otherwise; someone has to pay for them (except to receiver-pays countries like the USA). Some web sites give you "free" SMSes because they are trying to make money in other ways, like advertising or upselling different services.

But at the end of the day someone is paying.

 

Yea rates for sending mass sms will be less but still some1 has to pay

 

i do not agree.
i just bought 1200 sms credits from someone.. and he has dedicated as i want to do .. he has no contract and he doesnt pay anything..

i can and will pay money for soft and etc

 

Simply untrue. This person or his supplier is paying, or else the credits only work in a handful of countries.

Anyway, keep chasing the dream. Perhaps you could ask this person where his magic SMS credits come from.

 

dude, i entered on his pc and saw all procees.. he is not paying anything
he wants 650E to make me like his .. and i cant afford all this.

 

you can use a sms gateway software / API to send sms. email2sms gateway is free BUT is not supported everywhere. Even though you OWN a SMSC server. you need connectivity to some mobile gateway, unless you own it yourself, still someone is paying. may be you guys are abusing some gateway there who isnt securing their paths, but this isnt free totally.

 

this is an option to but i still search for something better..
i can afford in p0aying for dedicated on more than 150-200E monthly for this ..

 

sorry for duble post.
i found kannel.org and with this and maybe another software can be done ..
sms email type ..

i have resourse (dedicated , internet etc..)

 

Kannel lets you send SMS via a GSM modem (i.e., phone) in which case your phone account is billed. Or it lets you connect via the internet to an SMSC in which case you need to have a paid account with them before they will accept your connection.

If there was a way to send free SMSes then nobody would be paying for them by now.

 

Which countries are you going to service basically from and where you from? I can get you some good contacts..
