SEO for electricians.More of the work you want.
Local SEO for electricians and electrical contractors, from £250 a month with a free custom-coded website. We have already done it for an electrician who now gets 20+ form enquiries a month.
Electrician SEO
We have done thisfor an electrician.
Martin Kaine is an electrician in Colchester. He came to us after paying an agency every month for very little. We rebuilt his website around the jobs he wanted and the areas he covers, and within six months he was averaging more than 20 enquiries a month from the contact form alone.
That is what electrician SEO should do: bring in the jobs you actually want, such as rewires, consumer unit upgrades, EV chargers and landlord certificates, from the towns you actually cover. Not just more calls about a light switch forty minutes away.
Real searches
What your customerstype into Google.
Electrical searches fall into three groups. Emergency work is urgent and goes to whoever shows on the map. Compliance work, such as EICRs for landlords, comes round every few years. Upgrades such as EV chargers, rewires and solar are high-value jobs people research before they call.

What we do
What electrician SEOincludes with us.
Pages for the jobs that pay
Rewires, consumer unit upgrades, EV charger installs, EICRs, fault finding and commercial work each get their own page, answering what customers ask: cost, how long it takes, disruption and certificates.
Landlord and letting agent pages
Private landlords in England need an EICR at least every five years. A page aimed at landlords and letting agents turns that into steady, repeat work.
Area pages for towns you cover
A proper page for each main town in your patch, with the jobs you do there. Never a batch of copy-and-paste town pages that Google ignores.
Google Business Profile for electricians
The right categories, every service listed, your real service area, emergency hours that match what you offer and photos of finished work, not stock images.
Trust signals up front
Your NICEIC or NAPIT registration, Part P notification, insurance and guarantees, shown clearly. Homeowners check these before they call.
Reviews and listings
A simple way to ask every happy customer for a Google review, plus consistent details across Checkatrade, Yell, Bing and the other listings Google cross-checks.
Jobs worth a page
The electrical jobsworth ranking for.
Every electrician does a bit of everything, but some jobs bring in far more searches and far more money. These are the pages we usually build first.
40,300 searches a month
EICRs and landlord certificates
“eicr” and “eicr certificate” together. Repeat work every five years, often booked by letting agents managing dozens of properties.
17,200 searches a month
EV charger installation
“ev charger installation” plus “ev charger installation cost”. Homeowners research price, charger brands and grants before choosing an installer.
9,900 searches a month
Solar and battery storage
“solar panel installation”. A high-value job if you offer it, with long research times that suit detailed pages and case studies.
1,360 searches a month
Consumer units and fuse boards
“fuse box replacement” and “consumer unit replacement”. Often triggered by a failed EICR, so the two pages link naturally.
1,320 searches a month
Rewires
“house rewire” and “rewire cost”. Big jobs where a clear page on cost, timescales and disruption wins the enquiry.
2,900 searches a month
Commercial electrical work
“commercial electrician”. Offices, shops and landlords want proof of similar jobs, accreditations and how you work around trading hours.
Electrician SEO explained
SEO for electricians,in plain English.
Why electricians need local SEO
“Electrician near me” is searched around 40,500 times a month in the UK. Most people call one of the first few electricians they see on the map or in the results below it. If you are not there, the job goes to someone who is, or to a lead site that sells the same enquiry to several electricians.
Local SEO is the work that gets you into those places for the jobs and areas you choose. A page that ranks keeps bringing in enquiries without you paying for every click.
The best keywords for electricians
The best electrician keywords are the jobs you most want, in the places you cover. They come in three types:
- “Near me” searches such as “electrician near me” or “emergency electrician near me”. These are won mostly through your Google Business Profile, your reviews and how close you are to the person searching.
- Job and town searches such as “EV charger installation Bath” or “rewire Keynsham”. These are won with a dedicated page for each job and each main area on your own website.
- Question searches such as “how much does a rewire cost” or “do I need an EICR to sell my house”. Easy to rank for, and they bring in people early, before they have picked an electrician.
Local SEO for electricians
Your Google Business Profile decides whether you appear on the map. We set “Electrician” as your main category, list every service, set a realistic service area, add real job photos and keep posting so the profile stays active. Then we build a steady flow of reviews, because recent, detailed reviews are one of the strongest local signals Google uses.
SEO for electrical contractors and commercial work
Commercial clients search differently. A facilities manager looks for “commercial electrician” or “electrical contractor” plus a city, then checks your past projects, accreditations and insurance before getting in touch. For electrical contractors we build pages around sectors and project types, with case studies that show the scale of work you take on.
Marketing for electricians: where SEO fits
Most electricians rely on word of mouth, a lead site or two and perhaps some Google Ads. Those all work, but each one stops the moment you stop paying or asking. SEO builds something you own: a website and Google profile that bring in work every month. Many electricians run ads for urgent work while SEO builds, then spend less on ads once the organic enquiries arrive.
How long it takes
Google Business Profile and technical fixes can help within weeks. New job and area pages usually take one to three months to start ranking. Martin Kaine reached a steady 20+ form enquiries a month within six months, which is a realistic picture for a well-run local campaign.

Good to know
SEO for electricians,your questions answered.
The things electricians and electrical contractors ask us most before starting SEO.
Our plans are £250, £500 or £1,000 a month. Local Starter (£250) covers your website, Google Business Profile, directory listings, a review system and 2 new pages a month. Growth (£500) adds 4 pages and a guide each month, quality backlinks and call tracking. Dominate (£1,000) adds 6–8 pages, more backlinks, multiple locations and AI search checks. There is a three-month minimum, then it rolls monthly.
Profile and technical fixes can help within weeks, and new pages usually start ranking within one to three months. Our electrician client Martin Kaine was averaging more than 20 form enquiries a month within six months.
Usually, yes. One rewire or a couple of EV charger installs can cover several months of SEO, and ranking pages keep working. If you are already booked solid for months, we will tell you honestly that now isn’t the time.
Yes. EICR searches are some of the biggest in the electrical trade. We build pages aimed at landlords and letting agents, explain the five-year requirement clearly and make booking easy, so certificate work becomes a steady part of your diary.
Yes. These are high-value jobs where customers research for weeks, so detailed pages on cost, grants, charger or panel options and past installs make a real difference.
Yes, if it is in reasonable shape. If it is slow, hard to update or missing the pages you need, every plan includes a free custom-coded website, so we can rebuild it as part of the work.
Many electricians keep them while SEO builds up, then rely on them less. Enquiries from your own website aren’t shared with other electricians and don’t cost you per lead.
Yes. We are based in Bath but work remotely across the UK. Martin Kaine, our electrician case study, is in Colchester.
