    If you need to send sms to specific areas only. and amount of outgoing sms is not very heavy you can use a serial port GSM modem & local GSM service provider. For doing this way you need a bit of Hradware and embedded system knowledge.

    there are few more methods but you need to understand the boundaries of the system

    I work the same way too. For clickatell, there also exists a sort of very simple PHP API for it. That project could by example be found on PHPClasses.

    A handy resource about PHP and SMS could be found here
