Clickatell And Social Networking
Clickatell's global text messaging service has also been used successfully for social networking. Below is a case study of a company called Mobiluck, a fast growing mobile location-based social network with over 1 million mobile members and 5,000 new people joining daily from all over the world.
Available on all cell phones and PCs, in all countries, on all operator networks, and without any download, Mobiluck allows people to find nearby people, places and events, sorted by distance. In just a minute, people and businesses can create a free mobile webpage in order to be easily found on the mobile web.
Mobiluck were looking for a global provider, which could offer quick and reliable global SMS delivery at a suitable price point.
Mobiluck chose to integrate with Clickatell's cost effective, reliable and simple to implement SMS API solution, which offered them the reliable global reach, performance and price point they required.
The Results
With Clickatell's truly global reach, Mobiluck is able to extend its mobile communications channel to 790 networks spanning 220 countries enabling them to deliver millions of monthly SMS alerts around the world.
Mobiluck members now receive free Clickatell-powered SMS alerts to inform them of interesting events such as nearby friends or recent profile views.
Throughout September, Textually will be promoting Clickatell through a series of editorial ads that will highlight some of their specific services tailored to governments, industry, retailers, social networks and individuals, helping them do business smarter and faster - not only controlling costs but driving more revenue too.
