Hi David, welcome to the forum. Sorry to hear you've lost customers, but they may be back after they see what paying peanuts gets them!
The website looks good IMO. Perhaps add some customer testimonials? Always a nice touch! With regards to using Google images, I'd usually say to avoid them if possible!
Thanks ill be taking pictures for the next few weeks so only going to be on there for a few weeks I was going to add some testimonials but I thought people would not pay much attention as there easily faked maybe I am wrong just my way of thinking I guess
Wouldn't worry too much, if these ex clients are penny pinches do you really want them anyway?
Not sure if you have been quoting by the hour, but if you are try doing fixed price quotes.
Your web site and professional set-up will all help you gain new clients at the right rate.
Personally, I would loose the Google images. However I have a local gardener around my way who only has generic pictures which he passes off as his own and most of these are clearly from the USA!!
I do fixed price tried hourly when i started of and quickly changed to fixed price easier all around imo
i will lose the google pics in next few weeks just don't want someone to go the site and see blank pages
