Five Reasons To Buy VoIP
 by: Daymon Hoag

Believe it or not, there are still a few people out there who just don't get it when it comes to VoIP. With services like Skype, or Google Talk, it is easy to confuse what a true VoIP plan really is.

Skype, Google Talk, and the like would be more accurately described as PC to phone or click to call VoIP services. A true VoIP service uses an adaptor, enabling you to make and receive calls with your home telephone.

I think it is important people know the difference between click to call and true VoIP when deciding on a VoIP plan. For all intents and purposes we will be discussing five good reasons to buy a true VoIP plan.

The biggest reason to buy a VoIP plan is also the most obvious. VoIP is tremendously cheaper on both local and long distance telephone service, plus available calling features.

Number two on our list would be the dynamic features of VoIP phone service. VoIP enables you to have a phone number outside your own area code. You can take your adaptor with you when you travel too.

Number three is the cost effective ability to add on to existing service. Lets say you want a second phone line. With VoIP there is no need to install new equipment, and in most cases this will only cost around five dollars.

Number four is what I like to call the big trade off. By switching from dial up Internet to broadband, and switching to VoIP for phone service, you are acctually getting better service for less money.

Last but certainly not least, VoIP providers do not charge hidden fee's. Hidden fee's can make up to 20% of your total monthly phone bill. The only extra fee with VoIP is a 3% federal excise tax based on usage.

In closing, when looking for a VoIP service, make sure it is true VoIP. You only need a cable broadband or DSL connection, plus an adaptor to get started. Look for a VoIP company with a money back guarantee.
