I suggest "http://xxx.lanl.gov" e-print server. Although
originally designed for physics, it also hosts sections
from mathematics, nonlinear mechanics and computer science.
Publishing electronically does not prevent you from
publishing the same article in traditional journals.
As a matter of fact 70% e-print articles from xxx.lanl.gov
are reprinted somewhere else. This is being encouraged
by both media. For example, you can modify your abstract
on LANL server anytime to tell the world that:
+ your article has been accepted for hardcopy publication
+ your article appeared in such-and-such journal.
I hope this helps.
