Bulk SMS
Bulk SMS means that a great number of SMS messages are sent out to a lot of
phone numbers usually by using SMS gateway softwares.
Another way to send bulk SMS is to
subscribe to a website, which enables its subscribers to upload content and contact
lists, and deliver the composed messages by using their gateway system.
Bulk SMS essentially has the benefit of enhancing the efficiency of text
messaging in a company, since it takes less time to deliver thousands of messages
to a lot of recipients.
Bulk SMS messaging by SMS gateways
Sending out SMS messages in bulk can be done by SMS gateway software products.
These applications allow sending SMS messages of various contents to many recipients.
Through these applications the user can set up and control SMS delivery.
The delivery through a gateway is only possible if it is properly configured to work
with a direct link to the SMS center of mobile network providers. A connection with
the SMSC provides a chance to transmit bulk text messages in a large volume.
To set up a connection with an SMSC, the content provider must make a contract
with a mobile network provider. After this is signed, the network provider grants
a username/password and the port number through which the SMSC can be accessed.
Large corporations and organizations always seek economic solutions for marketing
and/or business information delivery. Compared to other wireless communication methods,
sending marketing advertisements and information is relatively cheap via SMS messages.
Since this way of communication became globally available and popular, many businesses
choose bulk SMS messaging. Sending bulk SMS messages on gateways is fast and affordable.
Usually SMS gateway applications also come with a simple User Interface and
offer many SMS messaging solutions.
