General Tech Starter problems

Recently have been running into the problem that when I turn the key I get no response out of the starter. I replaced the starter relay (76B) and still no response. Tap the starter with the soft end of a hammer and it turns over for me. This is sporadic but becoming more and more common. Do I have a starter going bad?

Unfortunately, it seems so.
