[RESOLVED] SMS Feature in my Website
Hi guys,
How can I add a SMS feature to my website ?
Just like, www.160by2.com
or, www.way2sms.com
The recipients will see the sender number as TK - MyWeb something like that. (eg: TK - 160by2)
If possible, give the information regarding India, because I am living in India :D

Hi,
Bulk sms providers with access to an sms gateway will usually give you the following:
ip address
username
password
With the above data, you embed a simple API or SMPP script into your website.

or you can just send an SMS email. For example, my carrier is AT&T (formerly cingular), so my email is [email protected], if you send an email to that, i would get an SMS to my phone.
I setup a script like that last year, let me see if i have it still

Yeah, I used a service like that awhile ago! I was interested in learning how sms system worked back then.

Re: SMS Feature in my Website
Thanks for the reply guys... :)
Currently I am looking for something that can be used to send SMS from my website.
I am a bit confused.. .:D
@dclamp : I liked that facility. But it only allows users to send messages to your number. And not to any other number that the users will enter... ;)
@Nightwalker83 : That idea is nice. but the service providers will allow limited quantity of messages according to the SMS credits that I had purchased.
What about adding my own SMS server facility ? What things should I have to keep in mind ? :)

I'm not sure if that is possible! Even if it is I think you would still have to go through a service provider. Although, I haven't tried it on a website, I remember using a visual basic 6.0 code which allowed a user to send texts via the function built-in to icq years ago.

I will be using classic ASP for my site....

Is the point here to send SMS messages for free? If it is not, you can use a service provider like Clickatell.
Re: SMS Feature in my Website
Ok.... thanks guys... I liked the bulk sms feature... :D
What about sending free sms ? I enquired way2sms.com 's people for this. But they are not replying.
I want to send free sms, allowing the service provider's Ad in the end of each msg..
What about that ?

Wrong, you put in any number you want, select the carrier, enter your message and press send.
Re: SMS Feature in my Website
Ok. I am in India. And you are in US. So, is that possible to implement that in here... ??

Re: SMS Feature in my Website
if you look at the list of carriers on my site, you will see which ones my script supports at the time. I saw your PM, and your carrier is not on the list.
I dont have much time to look into it now, as i am off to school.
