Text voting in the marketplace.

Text voting services were originally made popular with high profile TV voting such as The X Factor.

More recently other businesses and individuals have found alternative lower profile uses for text voting such as battle of the bands at live events and even smaller venues such as pubs and clubs have embraced text voting for karaoke competitions and similar events.

With Textvertising the voting by text message service offer text voting for not just commercial applications but equally welcome small businesses and individuals.

What rates can Textvertising provide?

Textvertising offer Text Voting either free of charge to the end user or at a number of premium rates - 10p, 25p, 50p, £1.00, £1.50, £2.50 and £5.00. The choice is yours.

All of these rates can be used simultaneously inside your account. This enables you for example to run one voting service that costs £1.00 and another that could cost £1.50 to the end user.

How many competitions can I run?
Each account you have allows 3 competitions or text voting services, one reverse auction and one text raffle service to be run simultaneously and independently of each other, each charging different rates if required.

How does the end user vote?
You simply create a sub keyword for each category or person. The end user simply needs to text your keyword plus the sub keyword to cast a vote.

How do I manage the service?
You do this through you admin page here at Textvertising. It is very easy to create, operate and manage any voting service. You can specify the categories or people, the start and end times and even limit the number of votes received per phone if you wish.

The system will report live to you all votes received and list them in highest ranking order. This all happens in real time.
