With no money in the budget you're going to need to spend a lot of time promoting your site. My best suggestion would be to spend some time here and at other forums, blogs, etc learning what you can about the basics of search engine optimization and marketing in general.
Hosting is a very competitive industry though and it's not going to be easy to get a lot of customers quickly with $0 in the budget.
One approach would be to look for a specific niche and cater your hosting to that niche. For example people who need to host a lot of videos will have their own special needs so set up your hosting with those needs in mind and market yourself specifically to people who need video hosting. I'm not suggesting video hosting as the specific niche you should go after, but rather as an example of a niche within hosting.
And know that there are no shortcuts to running a successful business online. It takes a lot of hard work and in most cases time.
