    I'm trying to come up with some effective ways to market a web host. I've been at it for a while, I feel like I give great service, I don't think there is anything keeping me back from doing well at it. It is growing, but just not at the rate I would like to see it.

    I'm only recieving about 300 unique visitors per month. This is all extremely targetted traffic, so it isn't as bad as it may sound.

    Does anyone here have any experience in the web hosting industry when it comes to marketing?

    Some of the things I already do:

    Market on webmaster forums (WHT, DP, and v7n primarily)
    Write Articles (ezinearticles)
    Directory Submission (I believe i'm submitted to more than 200 directories)
    SEO (I'm working on it, i'm ranked 26th on a very popular keyword)
    Word of Mouth (Spread the word where it seems to make sense about my company)

    Any ideas where to advertise? Even if it costs money, i just want some effective solutions to start growing a little more quickly. :)
