We may not go into detail to delve into the evolution of the internet and the discovery of the bulk sms, but what is worth deliberating upon now are the benefits we derive from bulk sms internet service.

To start with, bulk sms service is an internet service that enables you to send text messages from a customized website to up to 100,000 mobile phones at a go. Now, before the discovery of bulk sms internet service, text messages were usually sent from a mobile phone to another mobile phone. By this means, only one message could be sent at a time and it could only be sent to a single mobile phone at a time.
