Google places for me, free of charge and have had about 3 grands worth of work from it in total.

Hi elo83
Had a look at your site, looks good to the human eye but not too good to a search engine. May be not enough key words. If you where a customer that didnt know anything about electrics what would you type in to the search field to find what you where looking for. With that in mind you might come up with some keywords that differentiate you from the rest. I had the same problem advertising my holiday caravan but since twiddling with some key words I am getting the calls. Hope this helps.
