How to Create a SMS Chat Online Website

1. Launch your FTP client (e.g., Cyberduck on a Mac or Fetch on a PC) and connect to your website server to enable you to upload content to your website. If you are unsure of how to connect to your server (i.e., your login name and password), contact the customer care department at your web host company.
2. Download the piece of code necessary to embed an SMS chat system on your online website. Various companies offer free, hosted web-based SMS applications that allow your visitors to send SMS messages directly from your website. One of the easiest to install is smsGeezer, which installs the SMS chat network in an iFrame for easy integration with the rest of your website. Download the iFrame SMS code from the smsGeezer website (see Resources below).
3. Double-click the text file you downloaded in Step 2. Highlight all of the code and copy it by pressing 'Ctrl+C' on your keyboard. Paste it ('Ctrl+V') into your website's HTML code where you would like the SMS chat to appear on your website.
4. Upload the modified HTML file by dragging it to your FTP client and uploading it to your online server, replacing the old file that was previously online.
5. Access your website and check that the SMS web chat shows up on your page. Because the SMS chat is installed in an iFrame, it is embedded directly into your page and it will not attract your visitors away from your website.
