Homepage headline examples for electricians
The headline is read in about a second, usually by someone who arrived from a search. It should confirm they are in the right place.
Ten of them follow, written for electricians rather than filled in from a template. Your customer is a homeowner or builder who cannot see the work once the wall closes, and what they are weighing up before they get in touch is that shortcuts behind the drywall will fail an inspection or start a fire years later.

For a homeowner or builder who cannot see the work once the wall closes

Use this where the licence is the first thing people look for.
The question they typed
Need an electrician in [your town]?
Use this to mirror the search that brought them here.
The standard
Doing it to code when nobody would know if you did not
Use this if your differentiator is strong enough to lead with.
Plain and unglamorous
Electricians who turn up and charge what they quoted
Use this when your market distrusts polish.

Writing for electricians: what actually matters
What should an electrician’s website say that a generic one does not?
Three things, in this order. That you are licensed and insured. That you understand the thing people are actually worried about, which for electricians is that shortcuts behind the drywall will fail an inspection or start a fire years later. And what happens next: we walk the job with you and put the scope in writing. Everything else on the page is decoration by comparison.
What does a homeowner or builder who cannot see the work once the wall closes check first?
The credential, then the proof. For electricians it sounds like this. We pull the permit on every job that needs one. We work to code and have it inspected. We quote in writing with no open allowances. Put at least one of those above the fold rather than on a separate page nobody opens.
What is the most common mistake on an electrician’s website?
Writing about the business instead of the customer. "We have been established since 1998" answers a question nobody asked. "We walk the job with you and put the scope in writing" answers the one they are actually holding. If you only fix one thing, fix that.
How long should the copy be?
Shorter than you think, except where trust is being built. An About page of 120 well-chosen words beats 500 vague ones. The exception is anything explaining that shortcuts behind the drywall will fail an inspection or start a fire years later — there, specifics earn their length.
