Yes, I created a subdomain that features a daily picture of some servers/racks (i.e. server porn) & it took off pretty quickly (almost 1k subscribers now). Unfortunately the side effect is that I'm getting a lot of visitors looking for the other type of porn (assuming from Google images).
Looks like Google Analytics to me.
That's a total howl @serverbear!

I think we're guilty of that, and potentially most of the providers on this board too. Not sure how to have a sales force for an intangible service, though.
From our experience free VPS trials do not work.
If someone wants to test services $9.99 isn't a problem, especially when there's 30-day moneyback. Curious enough, people very rarely ask for moneyback, while those on free trial leave without giving any feedback.
Affiliation is one possible answer (if your margin is big enough and you don't have the time/will to do marketing yourself). This is especially true if you have a good but unknown product.
