Product Review: Private Phone Service from NetZero

Several months ago I was wandering around the net when once again, I found myself stuck in the web. I accidentally surfed onto an ad by NetZero advertising a service known as Private Phone. One word in particular immediately caught my attention, "free." As a curious young adult and a skeptical web surfer I clicked the ad and reviewed the details of this seemingly, interesting, too-good-to-be-true, free service. After much detailed reading and thorough research I decided to sign up and join.

From thorough research I learned that this free service has a variety of benefits. If you're anything like me, constantly changing your phone number, difficult to get a hold of, or not interested in feeling a burden to a cell phone, this is the perfect service for you. Some of the other usages and benefits Private Phone has to offer include:

- Personalizing your Private Phone number to get a number in a different city for work, or to be local to out-of-town friends and family.

- Use it to advertise your small business

- Use it to avoid unwanted callers

- Use it to give out to on-line friends, so you don't risk being harassed by strangers.

- If you shop on the internet, use it to keep telemarketers from calling your personal numbers.

Some of the many great features Private Phone has to offer are:

- 10,000 Voicemails

- GottaGo Call™

- Private Call Back (Private call back allows you to call the person back who left you the voicemail, and they will see your Private Phone number on the caller ID.

- Embeddable Voicemails (Allow you to check voicemails on-line and offer source code to embed them in your blog!)

- Get voicemail alerts in email or on your cell phone.

Signing up for the Private Phone service is easy and free. The step-by-step form allows you to choose from any listed U.S. state, area code, and city. Then all you have to do is fill out a short form where you create a username and password for checking voicemails on the internet. Once this step is completed, the last step is as simple as clicking and printing. No contract, credit cards, or extra equipment is required to join or use this service. The phone number is permanent and free, so you don't have to worry about paying a bill every month, interruption of service or keeping up with new phone numbers.

Your account with Private Phone includes a free e-mail address to send and receive emails, an electronic address book for all your new contacts, call logs, and the option to upgrade your service to enjoy advanced benefits such as call forwarding, call screening, a call-block list, and more.

I have had my Private Phone voicemail number for several months now and I am so glad I discovered this useful service. I just couldn't keep this a secret any longer, so here I am sharing this information with you. Take a few minutes and sign up!
