What is actually wrong

Four numbers that make electricians leave. Four that replace them.

Each column is a number an electrical contractor runs into, where it comes from, and the Ziwi figure instead.

The website $3,000 to $8,000 The quote an electrician gets for a new website from other agencies Typical trades agency range, Ziwi market notes 2026. A range vendors advertise, not a survey.
At Ziwi $0 Keep hosting 12 months and the $2,500 build fee is waived. Hosting comes with it.
A change Weeks How long a small change, like a new charger page, waits The word electricians use in reviews. No measured industry average for this exists.
At Ziwi 24 hours Small edits and rebate lines, by the person who built the page.
Booked jobs None you can trace Booked jobs you can point to from what you spent last month The gap electricians describe: a report of clicks, a schedule with the same holes in it. Not a measured average.
At Ziwi Every one traced Each booked job traced to the ad, search or map listing behind it. Results vary by market, offer and spend.
The agreement 12 months The term an electrician is asked to sign One agency estimate with no named survey behind it. Treat it as a common term, not a statistic.
At Ziwi Month to month Site, domain and ad accounts, LSAs included, are yours. Leaving costs $0.

Two top-row figures are words, because there is no measured average for either across electrical contractors: "weeks" is what electricians say a page change waits, and the third column is the outcome they cannot point to. The Ziwi figures below sit on the pricing page.

Questions

Asked, answered, and the fine print beside it

Six questions, the answer in the orange column, and the qualifier that would otherwise arrive on the call.
The questionThe answerThe fine print
Which marketing agencies for electricians show their prices upfront? Ziwi does, every price on this page: it starts at $297 a month, every rung printed. Elsewhere, $249 a month all in, website included (Footbridge Media); packages starting at $1,500 a month (Seoteric) (checked October 2026). See what electrician marketing costs, line by line. $497 once spend passes $1,500, $797 past $3,500. The spend stays on your card.
Any contract to sign? No contract. Month to month. Site, ad accounts and LSA profile are yours; leaving costs $0. The free website alone needs 12 months of hosting.
Is Google Ads or SEO better for an electrician? Both, on different clocks. Local Services Ads and search ads reach today's tripped breaker within a day. Local SEO takes 3 to 6 months to move the map pack, then sends calls when ads stop. Ads this week, the map for years.
How does an electrician get the green check badge on Local Services Ads? Pass Google's license, insurance and background check. The badge then shows above the map, before any website, and Google ranks badged electricians by reviews and how fast they answer the call. The license check runs on Google's clock.
How fast can jobs start? Ads within 24 hours, the website in 3 days. From discovery, approvals and account access. Google's LSA license check runs on its own clock.
Is the free website really free for a trade? Yes. All $2,500 of the build fee is waived. On a $99 hosting plan or $299 Ziwi Care for 12 months.

Month to month throughout. See every published price.
