City-level visibility, low-value jobs.
A page for "electrician [city]" attracts the whole metro and the cheapest quotes. "switchboard upgrade [suburb]" or "EV charger installation [suburb]" books the work worth doing.
Why most electrician SEO underdelivers
You rank for "electrician near me", but the jobs are small.
Generic visibility brings price-shoppers chasing the cheapest powerpoint. The electricians who win local search target the searches that book real work, switchboard upgrades, rewires, solar, EV chargers, commercial, by suburb, and own the Map Pack where the call is decided.
-
-
You compete on price because nothing else stands out.
When your profile and content look like every other sparky, you compete on quote. Strong reviews, real job photos, and service-specific pages let you win on trust instead.
-
Your Google Business Profile is the booking front door, undermanaged.
Most electrical calls start in the Map Pack. Categories, services, photos of real jobs, and review velocity decide whether you get the call or the competitor does.
What is included
Three pillars, run as one system.
Local SEO for an electrical business is three search surfaces working together: your Google Business Profile, suburb-level organic rankings, and the AI engines customers now ask first.

Honest timeline. Established domains with existing authority move faster.
Brand-new sites take longer. Anyone guaranteeing rankings in 30 days is either lying or about to penalise you. Speed
also depends on how competitive your market and category are.
Who this is for
Booked jobs that earn the retainer, if you are the right fit.
Honest answer up front: we are not for every electrician. The strategy call is a 30-minute conversation, not a pitch. If we are not a fit, we will say so and point you somewhere that is.
- ✓ An established electrical business with a teamYou have a working site, real customers, and a crew or vans. We build on the foundation rather than papering over cracks.
- ✓ High-value or commercial work to winSwitchboards, rewires, solar, EV chargers, and commercial contracts reward local SEO most, because one booked job can pay for months of work.
- ✓ Single van or multi-location operationWe run single-operator and multi-location campaigns, with the Google Business Profile and page architecture each needs.
- ✓ You can take on more jobsWhen local SEO works, the phone rings more. Make sure your schedule and team can absorb it before we open the tap.
A straight 30-minute call with Dorian. No pitch deck, no obligation.
We are probably not the right fit if…
- ✕ You are shopping purely for the cheapest electrician SEO quote.
- ✕ You want a guaranteed number one ranking and a contract that promises it.
- ✕ The business is brand-new and pre-revenue with no working website.
- ✕ You want one supplier handling SEO, ads, social, and the website.
We will say so on the call. We optimise for your revenue, not our retainer count.

Pricing
Straight pricing, no lock-in.
4 ways to start. The Search & AI Authority Partner retainer for ongoing growth in competitive markets, Local Growth for one location in a less competitive niche, the Search Foundation Sprint to fix the whole foundation in one go without a retainer, and a flat-fee citation cleanup for businesses with messy name, address, and phone data scattered across the directory web.
For smaller businesses
Local Growth
The same Maps, organic and AI work as the Partner retainer, scaled to one location in a niche that is not highly competitive. Month to month, 30 days notice.
From
$1,999
+ GST a month
What's included
- Month 1: your foundation, scaled to one location. If you did a Sprint first, you skip it and start on growth work.
- 1 high-value page created or upgraded every month (service, location or answer page), plus technical health watched and fixed
- Link building from day one and every month after, including editorial coverage in real publications
- Your Google Business Profile managed: 2 posts a week, photos, and review requests sent to every customer within Google’s rules
- Your key questions checked in AI answers every month, plus work to get you named in the sources those tools cite
- Rank tracking, a Maps grid, AI tracking, and call and form tracking, with a monthly report and a 30-minute call
- A strategy review every quarter, and the plan for the next one
Who it fits. One location, in a niche that is not highly competitive. Legal, medical, finance and other competitive niches, or more than one location, need the Partner retainer. The 90-day movement guarantee covers the Partner retainer, not Local Growth. What moves the price: a second location, a tougher niche or more pages a month. Past that, the Partner retainer fits better.
No commitment
Search Foundation Sprint
The whole foundation in one go: website, Google Business Profile and your name across the web. One-off, about 4 to 6 weeks, then it closes.
From
$1,500
+ GST one-off
What's included
- The diagnosis: the 25-point technical audit, a Google Business Profile review, a check of how ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews and Gemini answer your key questions, and a check that your business details match across the web
- The website: critical technical fixes, 1 priority page fully optimised plus 3 lighter pages, schema across the whole site, and an llms.txt file with an AI reference page
- Your Google Business Profile, where relevant: categories, services, description, hours and attributes corrected, your own photos uploaded, and a posting plan for the next 90 days
- Your name across the web: 1 brand fact document as the single source of truth, profiles and directory listings created or corrected, 1 Wikidata entry where eligible, and 10 short factual write-ups published from the fact document
- Handover: a roadmap (done, next, later, needs a developer, and worth doing with ongoing help), a reference guide, a recorded walkthrough, and 30 days of email questions. Then the Sprint closes.
From $1,500 + GST is the starting scope, for a smaller site. Larger sites and multi-location businesses get a tailored quote. Everything in the audit with implementation (from $999 + GST), plus your Google Business Profile corrected, your business named consistently across the web (fact document, profiles, Wikidata where eligible, 10 write-ups), an llms.txt file with an AI reference page, and a full handover pack. Not included: link building, ongoing posting, writing beyond the pages above, and rebuilds or development work.
