Any ideas as to how i can increase my exposiure (other than by spending vast sums on advertising) Many thanks Steve SwanWebTech

You can try several free advertising service out there. As you spread post about your service in many places, you will get many free traffic.
With the Google Adwords and/or Yahoo Search Marketing. You'll get targeted traffic which will eventualy colaborate with you and also spread the word about you.
