The versatile .tel address can be accessed via the internet and mobile phone.

"Fave" is a word that one associates with popular culture, usually a favorite pop star or actor. Fave.tel is a perfect platform that offers a one-stop voting mobile-compliant website for a TV show: national, regional, or local.

Whenever you need to set up a quick mobile-compliant voting site for a short-term entertainment project (and you already have your phone lines and websites in place), renting Fave.tel can offer you a low-cost alternative to expensive shortcodes and boutique 1-800 and 1-900 numbers.

No more dialing 1-800-MyFaves and clicking "1" for contestant #1, "2" for contestant #2, etc.

In short, on an electronic .tel card, you can use any phone number because your voters need not memorize anything, just click on their fave contestant. Their votes are automatically tallied according to your specifications.

"Fave" is easy to remember and short, which is important if you plan to flash the .tel access across a TV screen.
