Featured Online Phone Card Store: nobelcom.com

Nobelcom.com

If you are a regular seller or buyer of phone cards online you are no doubt familiar with the calling card store called nobelcom.com. Online since November 2002 nobelcom.com has been a dominant force in the online retail space with cards like Long Call World and Most Minutes World. Owned and operated by Thomas Knobel of NobelTel, Ltd, this company has quickly become the leader in the international phone card market. Their position as a global carrier helps them offer some of the lowest rate phone cards out there today.

Just about all of the phone cards on their site are fully rechargeable, reducing the need to have to remember a new pin number every time you need a new card.

NobelTel, Ltd headquarters is located in Hamilton Bermuda and also sells prepaid long distance phone service through it's Enjoy Prepaid brand and post paid long distance service through it's NobelTalk brand. The company also maintains a strong carrier wholesale business which helps them support their extensive retail offering while keeping their rates low.

Nobel Expands It's Online Calling Card Business Into the UK

As an online calling card retailer myself, I have to say I am envious of Nobel for their recent announcement of an expansion into the UK online calling card market. Next to the US, this is probably the next biggest calling card market in the world.

Nobel will be launching the web site Nobelcom.co.uk in the coming weeks and they should have no problem replicating their US success even though the UK market is fairly well saturated. In their business it's all about online advertising and implementing a strong organic search engine strategy as well as a sound PPC campaign.

With the calling card market getting more competitive here in the US, a lot of people have turned to other products and services, like prepaid mobile, voip services and prepaid cash cards to make up for the lost phone card revenue but in my mind going outside of the US is probably the best way to expand and/or keep your business growing. Some other markets of interest for phone cards are: Canada, Australia, Italy, Belgium, France, Spain, Portugal and Germany.
