Sending SMS

Discussion in 'Programming' started by ItamarP, Dec 13, 2010.

    Hey there,

    I want to start a new project which requires sending huge SMS amounts.

    I'd like to know how come ICQ and other servieces allow users send so much texts messages ?
    My project is not quite the same, but very similar to those services, and i'd like to know what tools should I use.

    thanks in advance

    They allow users to send so many texts because they believe there is a positive return on investment.

    What tools you should use will depend on the volume that you wish to send and which countries you need coverage in. Unless your going to me sending 100,000s of texts within a country it will most likely be cheapest to buy volume from a gateway provider and probably pay circa $0.04 per message sent

    take icq as example-
    do you think they actually spend so muck money for sms messages sent by users?

    AstarothSolutions ----> i want to be able to send 100,000 text messages every day,
    that's the point.

    Just for example , let's say I want to be able to provide sms gateways for users. What i have to do in order to give such a serviece?

    if your sending that volume you may want to consider investing in the hardware and send them yourself. Speak to the business section of your providers to get an idea of the pricing

    Maybe you should see Clickatell too as an option.
    They have a quite good API.

    Don't think you can find a free sms service, it would most likely be bad quality and slow. Rather get the paid ones.
