In summary, sending an SMS to a website requires the use of a SMS gateway service. This allows you to send text messages to a website's phone number or API. The purpose of sending an SMS to a website can vary, but it is a convenient way to communicate without using the internet or a specific app. However, not all websites have the capability to receive SMS messages, so it is important to check before sending.

I would like to know if I can send some data as an SMS from my mobile phone to a website. The website receives my SMS and send suitable instructions as SMS to my friend's mobile. Is this possible?

Regards.
