Free can be difficult. I dont know of any free service. But you can use a gateway using SMPP or you can get a easy url based account for sending SMS. The latter way is easy cos all you have to do is call a URL given by the provider with the message and the number as parameters and the message will get delivered.

Another method is to use a GSM modem and AT commands.

This you can use. I registered with this outfit and I could buy smses and send sms to any phone through my website. The following code shows the format. It's really simple. Any company you register with will give you the dlls to install on your machines giving you access to their gateways. Best of luck. Get back to me for further questions

'use the intellisoftwares' gateway
'objIntelliSMS = New IntelliSMS
'objIntelliSMS.PrimaryGateway = "https://www.intellisoftware.co.uk"
'objIntelliSMS.BackupGateway = "https://www.intellisoftware2.co.uk"
'objIntelliSMS.Username = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
'objIntelliSMS.Password = "xxxxxx"
'Try
' objIntelliSMS.SendMsg(strCellFoneNo, "This sms operation  is successful", "www.MySite.com")
' lblError.Text = "SMS Sent successfully to " & strCellFoneNo
'Catch Ex As Exception
' lblError.Text = "Error!: SMS could not be sent to " & strCellFoneNo
'Finally
'End Try

Why don't you try the link I gave in the original post. The pricing and costs are explicit on the web site ( www.intellisoft.co.uk ).
Successful? get back to me. Peace:cool:

If you got a phone with a data cable, you can try using this freeware, it comes with HTTP API and a sample HTML form to post the SMS - http://www.visualgsm.com/products_vgsmlite.htm
