In this modern or mobile era even a person in remote village is able to convey message to his friend in town instantly which was not possible for a King at those times,thanks to the technology.
As SMS has become a short, simple and affordable means of communication its is getting more and more popular.
When SMS was introduced only it was seen as a medium of communication but as its popularity grew, SMS was seen as a powerful Marketing tool.
Marketing Moguls used SMS as a one more media for Advertising.
The main advantage with SMS Advertising is its target accuracy.
No other media guaranteed its targeted viewers, like an ad placed on a newspaper may go unnoticed and same applies to a TV commercial but SMS can guarantee as this reaches the mobile inbox.
Also one can place ads based on the demographic or regional basis.
We can see a lot of organizations are providing Free SMS service websites, where a person can register his mobile and can send Free-SMS from PC to any mobile in India.
So what is the Catch? No there is no catch I am referring to Indian websites here.
Some allow you to send only 80 character message whereas some allow 120 char messages the remaining is used for their marketing purpose.
All one need is a valid mobile number in order to register for Free.
Now mobile based Free SMS is also provided by some providers.
Many may ask what is the monetary benefit for the service providers? Most of them run banner ads and text ads on their website and act as affiliates which has a good payback.
Some other providers Embed ads at the bottom of the Text message, these providers allow 80 -90 character SMS only as the remaining is used for placing Ad text.
The Free-SMS service providers charge the Advertisers per SMS.
But I will recommend the readers to go to the service providers who give you at least 140 char SMS as they don't embed ads on it.
Now days Free SMS providers are attracting the visitors by providing various features like games, videos, chat etc.
So, go ahead and register to send free sms now!
