Way2SMS believes that SMS should be free and its users can send unlimited free SMS across India.

From the press release
“Way2SMS bridges the gap between internet users and mobile users. Sending a Way2SMS message is easier, more personal and powerful, above all message will be delivered in less than a minute” said Mr.Raju, CEO of Way2SMS.

Internet users can sign up and use the service by visiting way2sms.com. Once registered, Way2SMS users can send a message to an individual or a group by just single click. Even without becoming a member, anyone can receive Way2SMS messages regardless of carrier or phone type.

What we think?
SMS use is explosive in India and “free services” are new. With the number of people in India and relatively low wages the new mobitisements will work. Ad-supported messages are an ideal way to advertise in India.
Of course, GoMo news understands how annoying SMS advertising can be and the ease at which adverts can be deleted – but India is altogether another market where cost and saving money is paramount.
