The interesting point is, your ad is sent only to people who want to receive it. In other words, ASKbySMS lets people choose their ads. They can subscribe for a particular type of ads and be notified only of those ads. For example, if you are a used car dealer, you can subscribe to ads related to used car selling/buying and be notified whenever someone wants to buy or sell a used car in the city. Now, here's the most important part - it's a FREE service.

The service is now available only in Bangalore, India. This will simply replace the need for classifieds in newspapers and can actually be far more effective and quicker. If you are from Bangalore, make sure you give it a try and let us know.

Wouldn't it be great if there was a way that you could advertise yourself or your stuff or your service to the whole of India from your mobile phone? It would mean that you didn't have to design, photocopy and then physically distribute adverts, or use those other outdated, passive and slow methods of contacting people.

Wouldn't it be great if that service sent you a text the minute someone was interested in what you were offering? Wouldn't it be great if that service kept your number private, so that it didn't get plastered all over the place?

We have good news for you. That service exists and it is ASKbySMS.

ASKbySMS is Classified ads 2.0 ; a free service that allows you to post ADS directly from your mobile phone. We call it Classified ads 2.0 because ASKbySMS  is, real time, active and not passive; as soon as you post your message on ASKbySMS, we send your message out to people who have what you want or who want to meet you. You can post any sort of message that you like; sell your stuff, sell your services, find a place to stay, a party to go to or anything that you can imagine; and ASKbySMS works from any phone anywhere in the world.
