According to Wikipedia Voice over Internet Protocol also called VoIP, IP Telephony and Internet telephony “is the routing of voice conversations over the Internet or through any other IP-based network”.
Simply put, VoIP refers to the carriage of voice signals over the Internet. PC to Phone services refers to using your 'Internet-connected' computer to make calls to conventional telephones around the world. Whereas traditional telephone calls take place over fixed line ‘circuit switched’ networks, VoIP calls are routed through the Internet using a far more efficient method known as ‘packet switching’. The main advantage that VoIP has is the cost.
By using the Internet to route your calls, long-distance charges imposed upon by the major telecommunication companies are eliminated. Furthermore, many of the governmental taxes and fees associated with using the highly regulated telephone networks are also avoided. This results in extremely cheap, long distance calling to conventional telephones around the world.
VoIP has become an important technology for phone services to travelers and migrant workers, who either, due to not having a fixed or mobile phone or high overseas roaming charges, chooses instead to use VoIP services to make their phone calls. PC to phone calling cards can be used to make inexpensive calls to anywhere in the World.
You must be wondering “how do you actually make phone calls from your PC?” It may seem a very difficult task at first but you can actually make low cost international calls from your PC to any phone in this world. All you need is a computer, a headset, and an internet connection, to make free PC to phone calls to anyone in the world!
The next thing to do is choose a PC to Phone Services Provider. These are the companies that provide the software and infrastructure necessary for you to make calls to conventional telephones via the Internet.
Once you’ve chosen a Service Provider, you’ll need to open an account and deposit funds into that account. Next, you’ll need to download the ‘dialer’ application from your service provider. A dialer is merely an interface program through which you dial the number of the person you’re calling and usually only takes a few minutes to download.
Fone2Talk is the leading provider of PC to phone services and PC to phone calling cards used for making phon call from PC.
