Any new web hosting service provider feels that there exists a great competition in web hosting industry he has to face great troubles to establish him in the market. Yes my friend you are right. But there are several ways that can help you to follow a path of success in this web hosting business. First of all a very essential requirement is you must provide your customers a quality services at a reasonable cost. Even though you are providing a best quality services and at a least possible price, nobody will come to you if no one knows about your web hosting services. Every web hosting company should have some good advertising plans which can bring it lots of customers and improve sales figures.
Advertising trough search engine
90% internet users use search engine to find relevant information on the internet. Many internet users find web hosting service providers on the internet. A search engine can bring you more clients. All you need to do is optimize your website for keywords related to your web hosting business profiles. With these keywords in your webpage, try to get higher rank in search results. Again this will be a difficult task because there is a great competition to achieve first rank in search results.
Also there are two kinds of search engines one that decides rankings depends upon site content and backward links and others are paid search engines which offers rankings based on amount paid by web site to advertise it for a limited time. As a beginner you target free search engine rankings, after you get settled in market you can go for paid search engine services.
Advertise with Web Hosting directory
Advertising with web hosting directory can also give you lots of sales and number of customers at a very low cost. If you are a quality web hosting service provider, you should have no trouble by being added to any of the top directories. Notice that all directories have own rules and needs some least system configuration for being added. In this category also there are free and paid dictionaries. As a fresher, you should start with free dictionaries.
PPC Advertising
This kind of advertising is very famous on the internet. PPC- Pay per click advertisements are very good source of getting traffic on your website. You can give your advertisements to some highly traffic websites and you have to pay for every click you get from that web page. Thousands of people will visit that page and all of them will have a glance at your web site and some interested prospective customers will come to your web site to visit you and have a look at your service plans. You can get a crowd from an advertisement but for that you may have to pay a handsome amount. You can give these kind of advertisements on web designing forums, programming forums, highly traffic blogs and some famous portals.
There are number of methods how you can get clients for your web hosting business. Some of them work slowly and some give you rapid action. All I want to tell you are you need to make a good marketing strategy and stick to that. Make plans of where to spend money for marketing and decide targets of getting clients through these sources. You will be definitely succeeded.
However though, providing great pre-sales service is definitely a must. If your customers want to sell phone card or hotel deals online, they need the sales person to convince that they will get premium level of service. This includes but not limited to their websites will always be up and available hence their business will always be operational. Otherwise you will waste budget for driving customers to your website but are not convinced with your level of service.
