Including the name is a great idea. I feel like stock photos of business offices and people are a turn off. Anytime I see them on a site, I figure it's a basement operation being run by amateurs. Why are they posting a photo of a random boardroom and not their own? My only conclusion, they have no office. Why are they showing a photo of a random woman with a headset? They must have no dedicated support in house.

Real photos always stand out. If I'm looking for a webhost, and they show an actual photo of their datacenter, with one of their staff members standing inside, that's a huge plus. They actually have physical access to the datacenter. If I need something, they can get it done. They're not just reselling someone else's service.
