Best ways to promote new Web Hosting Business?

Hello everyone, I have started a new web hosting business.
I want to know some good ways to promote my web hosting business? Trying Google Ads but not getting enough results.
Any other ways for the initial boost?

Good afternoon @Pocomaster,

Unfortunately gaining traction for a hosting business takes quite a long time as the industry is quite saturated. I'd recommend posting your business on some of the free / premium web hosting directories that can be found on the internet, just search google and you should find a few.

I'd also recommend (if you haven't already) working on some SEO strategies to strengthen your positions in the search engines based on keywords that work for you and your business.

Personally I don't use Google Ads, I use Twitter Ads and work with an SEO agency to try and grow organic traffic. If you do use Twitter Ads however, be advised, you must really narrow down the target audience or you will end up with 100s of clicks with little or no business gained from them.

I hope this helps - I know it's somewhat broad.

Many new web hosts come by the day, but due to lack of knowledge they are unable to stand in this competition.

The marketing strategies depend on many factors such as the capital you are investing, how big your setup is? is it your side business or registered company?

Can you tell how big your setup is?

Google Ads is a very advanced way of promotion, but before that, you have to make your business presence online on different social media platforms, your website layout should be user-friendly. Do off-page activities on a regular basis. and after that, you can run the Facebook campaigns and google ads together. when all these activities will run parallelly then your business will boost and good chances of ranking on the 1st page of SERP.

Hi, It's nice to hear from you and best of luck.

For the initial stage, I would not suggest running Google Ads, I would suggest go with different social platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, etc and market your hosting agency.

Secondly, it depends on how many and what features do your offer, also the pricing should be flexible. I would suggest visiting a different hosting platform and see what they offer. So you can analyze how they get the conversions.

To be honest, this business doesn't seem to be good for small players in the coming years. But maybe it's wrong. Promotion?

I would choose sites where people learn a particular knowledge or for example html, wordpress etc. where people are beginners.

I would suggest using Webmaster Promotions Forums and try hiring posters I remembers there was Post Loops I don't know if they are still active.

Forumweb.hosting or other hosting forums are great source to promote your hosting business. Besides, you can use Google ads or Facebook ads but I think, just Google ads will be effective for you

Friends and family
local advertising
forum posting
social media promotions
freebies
coupon websites
adwords and cpa networks

Google adwords is an good option for you need to check if you`re bidding for the right keywords and competitive keywords.

If you find that the keywords that you targeted in PPC are gicing you results then you can try to rank organically for those keywords so that you will get fruits from organic SEO.

Apart from that you can try these methods also which are fair enough while promoting web hosting business.

You can Contact Youtubers to Promote your Company on their Channel
You can Post Classifieds on Newspapers to Promote your company
Post classifieds for Free on Online Classified sites
Start interacting with users on Web Hosting forums
Make use of Advertising Networks Like Adwords, Facebook Ads etc

Honestly Speaking, You can promote this hosting business, and also you can promote it through google ads. You can do so if you want organic traffic I personally recommend the hosting business through google.
