Ultimate WP SMS Pro
The Ultimate WP SMS (or UWS) WordPress SMS plugin provides a great way of connecting with your customers, blog subscribers or club members. This plugin allows you to send SMS, MMS and voice messages to a group or to individuals.
The Pro plugin is an upgrade to the Ultimate WP SMS Lite plugin, providing a whole host of extra features (see lite vs pro comparison).
To use this plugin, you will need an account and number with either Twilio or Telnyx. If you don’t already have an account, you can sign up for a free trial with either provider. Once set up, you can explore all that the UWS plugin can do for you. Twilio and Telnyx’s pricing details are available on their respective websites.
As discussed in this article, SMS messages have “open rate” of 98%, i.e. 98% of all SMS messages sent, are opened by the recipient. This compares to only 22% of emails sent, so engage with your customers, by sending SMS messages from the UWS plugin.
