Can anyone recommend a SMS service provider?

  1. Hi

    I am looking to integrate a SMS facility into our website for both Bulk and single SMS message sends.

    Has anyone used one they can recommend?

    Thanks

    James
     
  2. I use

    http://clickatell.com/

    And here's a function I use to send messages.

    private static void SendIt(long number, string msg)
    {
    ASCIIEncoding encoding = new ASCIIEncoding();
    StringBuilder postData = new StringBuilder();
    postData.Append('api_id=' + m_Api_id);
    postData.Append('&user=' + m_Username);
    postData.Append('&password=' + m_Password);
    postData.Append('&to=' + number);
    postData.Append('&text=' + msg);

    byte[] data = encoding.GetBytes(postData.ToString());

    // Prepare web request...
    HttpWebRequest myRequest =
    (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create('http://api.clickatell.com/http/sendmsg');
    myRequest.Method = 'POST';
    myRequest.ContentType = 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded';
    myRequest.ContentLength = data.Length;
    Stream newStream = myRequest.GetRequestStream();
    // Send the data.
    newStream.Write(data, 0, data.Length);
    newStream.Close();

    }
