Where to put good local advertisements? I'm having some trouble with this. I am the only host in my area and would like to know the best places/ads to pick up local businesses and such.

UrbanHostOnline, I would recommend checking out a thread about this topic.

THREAD URL:
Good idea for local advertising

Also, it looks like you have already advertised at local college campuses and have found it to be a "great idea." Did it turn out not to be such a "great idea" after all?

In this thread, I was thinking more along the lines as local businesses. Like doctors, antique stores, etc.... College campuses are a different market.

Where are you located? I can't find this information and your domain name is privately registered.

You have a world of opportunity open to you if you're in fact the only hosting company in your area.

1. Yellow pages. (There would only be one listing.....your's)

2. Newspaper (same as above....one listing)

3. Business cards

4. Post office bulletin board (any local bulletin board for that matter, where professionals will see it)

5. Large community cookout/BBQ (invite people in your community, to announce your business to them, making sure you list it prominantly as "sponsored by YourCompany" etc...).

6. Local radio ads

7. Local cable company ad spots.
