Small business website design
The pages, words and details a small business website needs to bring in enquiries.
Websites for electricians
A website that shows you're registered, explains the jobs you do and makes it easy to ring you. You send the facts, I write the pages, and there's no contract.

The short answer
Good electrician website design puts four things first: your competent person scheme registration (NICEIC, NAPIT or similar) with a number people can check, the jobs you do, such as EICRs, rewires, consumer units and EV chargers, the towns you cover, and your phone number on every page. Add recent reviews and it's done. Ours start at £49 a month, no contract.

Four things I put on every electrician's website, in the order customers tend to look for them.
Your registration near the top of the page, with the number written out, so a homeowner or letting agent can check it on the scheme's register before they ring.
A landlord after an EICR and a homeowner pricing a car charger want different answers. On Growth and Pro, each main job gets its own page.
Your number in the header of every page, ringing in one tap on a phone, on every plan. Growth adds a WhatsApp button and a sticky call bar, handy when someone wants to send a photo of a scorched socket first.
Your Google reviews, ideally ones that mention the job and the town. A review about a rewire in a named street tells people more than five stars on their own.
Electricians tend to get three quite different enquiries online. Someone with a fault wants help today: the kitchen keeps tripping, or a socket has gone black. Someone planning work, such as a rewire, a consumer unit upgrade or an EV charger, compares two or three firms and reads properly before asking for a quote. And landlords and letting agents want electrical safety reports done on time, with the paperwork sent straight over.
That last group is steady, repeat work. Private landlords in England, Scotland and Wales have to get the electrics in their rented homes inspected and tested at least every 5 years, so agents keep lists of electricians they can rely on. They book whoever makes it simple: a clear price, a realistic lead time and a certificate that arrives without chasing.
Good electrician website design serves all three without getting long-winded. The person with a fault sees your number straight away, the planner finds a page about their job, and the landlord can see you do EICRs and how the report reaches them.
The details that win the job. Send me the facts and I'll write them up in plain English.
NICEIC, NAPIT or whichever competent person scheme you're with, written as text with your number. Only schemes you're currently registered with.
A starting price, how soon you can usually attend and how the report reaches the landlord or agent. If you already work with letting agents, say so.
Which chargers you fit and what a typical driveway install involves. If you're an OZEV-authorised installer, say so. Charger buyers read a lot before they get in touch.
A fixed price for an EICR on a 2-bed flat or a “from” price for a consumer unit tells people you're upfront. You don't need a full price list.
Say plainly whether you take emergency calls and when. Only promise hours you can actually keep, or you'll spend evenings apologising.
Named towns and districts rather than “and surrounding areas”. It cuts wasted calls and helps Google understand where you work.
The live electrician template leads with your registration and fixed prices, then gives EICRs, rewires and EV chargers a section each. Type your business name into the form at the top of the page to see it as yours.
What to notice
Plenty of electricians use a lead or directory site alongside a website. Here's what each option asks of you.
| Lead and directory sites | DIY website builder | MonthlySite | |
|---|---|---|---|
| What you pay | Typically a membership or a fee per lead | Typically £10 to £35 a month | £49 to £99 a month |
| Who else sees the enquiry | Sometimes other electricians | Only you | Only you |
| Your time | Replying to leads fast | Evenings building it | About half an hour |
| Changes when you're busy | You edit your profile | You, after work | Email me and I do it |
| Contract | Varies, sometimes 12 months | Monthly or yearly | None |
Costs are typical UK ranges, not quotes. Lead sites can be worth it, and they work best alongside a website you own.
Searches like “electrician near me” or “EV charger installer” usually show a map with three local firms above the normal results. Who appears there depends mostly on your Google Business Profile: the categories and services you've chosen, how close you are to the person searching, and your reviews. Your website backs it up by confirming the same name, number, services and areas.
Growth includes setting up your Google Business Profile with your services listed properly (EICRs, rewires, charger installs) and local SEO for your town. Pro adds a page for each area you cover, each one written for that area. Nobody can promise you a place in the map, and I won't.
Letting agents are worth a direct approach too. A page that shows your EICR price and how quickly the report arrives gives them something to forward to landlords, and one agent can mean dozens of properties a year.

I only publish genuine reviews, and MonthlySite's first ones are on their way. Until then, here's my promise: you'll deal with me, and I'll reply within one working day.
Charlie, founder
Every plan includes design, hosting, security updates and changes by email. Growth is the one I'd suggest for most electricians: room for separate EICR, rewire and EV charger pages, plus your Google Business Profile set up for you.

Yes. Send me your scheme and registration number and I'll show them near the top of the site and on your contact page, so customers can check you on the scheme's register. I'll only use a scheme's logo in line with its own rules, and only for schemes you're currently registered with.
Yes, on Growth (up to 6 pages) and Pro (up to 10). A page per main job lets you answer the questions each customer actually asks, like how long an EICR takes or what a charger install involves. Starter has 3 pages, which suits electricians who mostly work from word of mouth.
Make it easy to trust you and easy to ring you: registration number, clear services, areas covered and recent reviews. Then pair it with a complete Google Business Profile, because many local searches go through the map results. Ask every happy customer for a review. I won't promise a number of calls, because nobody honestly can.
If you enjoy it and have the evenings, a DIY builder is cheaper, typically £10 to £35 a month. You'll still write the pages, sort the domain and keep it updated yourself. With us it's £49 to £99 a month with no contract, and I do the building, writing and changes.
Typically £10 to £35 a month for a DIY builder plus your time, a few hundred pounds to a couple of thousand from a freelancer, and more from an agency, with hosting and changes often extra. Ours are £49, £79 or £99 a month, all in, with no upfront fee. You can also own one outright from £549.
Yes. It's registered in your name, and one standard .co.uk, .uk or .com is included while you stay on a plan. If you cancel, you keep it (the renewal becomes yours), your text and your photos. The design and hosting are part of the plan, but you can buy the site outright if you'd like to keep it.
Pick your trade, add your business name and see it on a laptop and a phone. If you like it, plans start at £49 a month with no contract.
