Next generation pay-per-minute premium phone chat

At about this time last year, I needed the services of a family lawyer. Eventually I found, met, and paid one but I remember thinking at the time that I would have preferred to have paid on a per-minute basis for a telephone consultation if such a service existed. Well, soon it just might.

Thanks to cloud based VoIP technology, a new form of per-minute phone chat now is possible that allows professionals, counsellors or experts in any given field to easily create their own telephone consultancy or entertainment hot line.

This new form of pay-per-minute billing differentiates itself from traditional premium rate in a number of ways.

First off, the caller does not dial a premium rate number: rather, he or she enters their phone number into the phonesite and the system will then automatically connect the two parties.

Secondly, the caller does not pay their phone company. Instead, they use their credit or debit card to pre-pay minutes. This means that the person offering the service will not have to wait the typical 45 days or more associated with the old-style numbers for their money.

In keeping with the freemium economy, those interested in operating their own phonesite need not part with any money. Thanks to VoIP, set-up fees and monthly number rentals can now also be consigned to the history books.

Furthermore, phonesite owners can also charge what they like per minute and are not constrained by the fixed rate tariffs that were previously available.

But perhaps the biggest advantage of all afforded by this new form of per-minute phone platform is that users can reach out to a global audience and not just a national one.

This means that professionals who are fed up with ‘difficult-to-bill’ telephone consultations can point existing and prospective customers to their new phonesite and reconnect with them that way.

The old saying ‘time is money’ holds now more true more than ever. By deploying this next-generation technology, those with something of value to say can now trade the former with the latter on an ad-hoc basis.

This way, pornsatrs can reach out and offer one-on-one sessions away from all that internet clutter via a ubiquitous device that everybody has – the phone.

And thanks to social media, spreading the word about the existence of phonesites to a targeted audience has never been easier.

In conclusion, next-generation pay-per-minute phonesites allows anyone that can add value to a call to benefit from the familiarity of a device dating back to the pre-web era, whilst capitalising on the technology and free advertising opportunities in the internet one.
