Yesterday when I was going to sleep I got a message which I had to reply but when I tried to reply I got a notification saying you have no balance so the message couldn’t be sent, so I thought about using online messaging service 160by2 which is the most popular and was successful.
And after that I got this idea of creating a list of top 10 free messaging sites in India to help others, who might be looking to try some other services also.
Before I start with the list I think you should first know how these sites work ?
Actually the messages are sent through a web script and forwarded to your mobile number through an SMS gateway, the site owners purchase bulk messages through the gateway providers it cost something like 1 Lac SMS for Rs. 10,000.
So, why they are spending thousands of rupees ? Because they make 10x more than they spend, from the advertisements they place below your message and the ads on their websites.
Why you should be using these free messaging sites?
There are lots of reason so see which one best suits you;
Totally Free of Cost -They don’t charge you anything.
Could Send SMS Worldwide - Some sites allow you to send free messages worldwide.
Privacy - You can send messages anonymously (don’t be evil)
No Limit - Now in India you can only send 100 sms in one day but on these sites there is no limit.
No Network Coverage in Mobile - Recently I was in J & K where our mobiles don’t have network coverage so in that case I could have used these sites to send the messages to my loved ones.
Bulk Messaging Even On Special Days - Mobile network providers prohibit bulk messaging on days like 31 December, Holi, Dewali etc. and also start charging at normal rates disabling the message packs.
Saves Your Money - If you do lots of messaging then these sites could do magic for you, you don’t have to worry about talktime or about the expiry of message pack.
As now you have the reason to use these services, so here is the list of the best free messaging sites in India:-
