Make Free Calls Online

 

If you have a computer and you want to save money on long distance calls or even international calls, you have come to the right place. The technology that powers computer-to-computer calling is called VOIP, or voice over internet protocol. This technology allows you to make calls to family or friends using your computer. In other words, your computer calls their computer!  

  

You can make free calls on your computer using the built-in microphone. If you are contemplating using this technique, you must verify that your friend or family member also has a microphone on their computer. Otherwise you can’t talk to each other. To make free calls using VOIP from one computer to another you will have to coordinate availability. Be sure you and the person you wish to call are going to be online at the same time. If you use your computer off and on all day, this coordination will not be difficult.

You can make an international call for free using the VOIP technology and this will save you a substantial amount of money. You can use your computer to make calls to land lines and cell phones as well, but these calls are not free.   

  

Search online for ‘free online calling’ or companies that offer VOIP services and you’ll find a variety of rates. Most of these companies allow you to deposit money and use the service to make calls to mobile phones and land lines for fees that are very competitive. Even though you will pay for these calls, the rates are cheaper than the cell to cell rates, especially for international calls. Domestic rates can be as low as 2-3 cents per minute. International rates are equally as favorable. 

  

Make phone calls by subscribing to their service and paying the subscription fee and you will save even more money.
