How to Send a Fax for Free
Sending faxes does not have to cost you or your business an arm and a leg. You can find websites that allow you to send a fax for free.
This article will discuss these websites, common steps for sending faxes online, and some comments on free faxing just for you.
Websites that Allow You to Fax for Free
It is important to understand these companies differ in what they offer. Some websites allow you to send two faxes per day, each of which can be only three pages in length (plus the cover page).
How does it stay free? The company inserts an advertisement on your cover page. If you are fine with that, then this method is an excellent means of saving money on a fax machine or company that charges for its services.
However, there are sites that do not insert ads on the cover page of your fax. Like the other websites, however, the maximum faxes per day is limited to two, and each of those can only be three pages in length max.
Both types of providers only offer outbound faxes within the United States and Canada; you cannot receive faxes.

Comments on Sending Free Faxes
We would like to take this opportunity to remind you that no online fax service is completely free with no limitations. Each free service is incredibly limited as far as faxes per day and pages per fax.
At this time, there is no free service that provides you with your own fax number for free; that means none of the free services allow you to receive faxes.
When this fact changes, we will update ASAP. However, there are plenty of services that do provide you with your own number and offer 30-day free trials for you to test out their service.
If you do not need to receive faxes, then the free online fax websites will suit your needs; however, if you need to be able to send and receive faxes and you would like your own fax number, you should look into some of the other fax companies online.Whatever you do, remember this fact: you do not need to spend hundreds of dollars on a traditional fax machine.
You can find an online fax service that will fit your needs, whether you decide to send a fax for free or pay for a service that allows multiple faxes.
