currently there are lots of site that offer paid email.The concept is
very simple the website collect advertisement from companies and these
advts are send to the members via e-mails and the members will get
money for reading the e-mails ie a percenage of the money get from the
advt company .The same concept is used in the paid sms,here instead of
e-mails sms are used.The main advantage of sms is that it comes
directly to the mobile.so the chance of reading the sms is high.good
for the advertiser.But there is a big problem the size of sms is
limited (ie 1sms=160 character ) .The advertiser must make the advt in
less words to make the sms advt powerful. How ever the paid sms is in
its starting stage.many companies are coming to the field.In india
websites like www.mginger.com ,www.m-earn.com offer paid sms.I study
about both the sites Both are in its beta stage they are trying to make
large number of members so that they can attract the companies to get
advertisements. They will pay the money when certain limit is reached
(like Rs 250/-) Still now they are not getting many ads so you need to
waits a lot of time to get the money on your hand.....
