You'll see the new UH site come live very soon, putting the final touches to it now infact. Theres only going to be one section of "image text" ... the logo
Not necessarily - just use CSS Image Replacement to do it so search engines see text rather than images. Obviously, if the images are just text which would look the same with or without the image then it makes more sense to have text to improve page load times.

This is what we have attempted to do - and put it as H1's.

Thanks for your comments

You might want to do, as James suggested, make your Domains/Hosting/Servers subheadings

with image replacement.

Hi,

I like the design, but you're home page shows domains @ £1.99 /month which is a big price increase from your old site.
