For electricians
Electrician websites — one page for services, area, WhatsApp and COC notes
Electrician websites work when a stranger can see what you install and repair, where you work, how to WhatsApp you, and any COC notes you actually want on the page. Makesite builds that as one custom page for R649 once, with a live link in about 72 hours. Pay only if you keep it. Based in Cape Town, used across South Africa. It is not a shop and not a job-management system.
What belongs on an electrician's one page
Most people who find you are not browsing a catalogue. They have a dead circuit, a COC deadline, a solar question, or a landlord who wants a name. The page should answer those in one scroll on a phone.
- • The work you actually do: domestic faults, new installs, commercial, solar, COCs. Leave off work you do not take.
- • Service area in plain suburb and town names, not a vague “Cape Town and surrounds” if you only cover three areas.
- • COC and registration notes from your brief, if you want them shown. We will not invent a number.
- • WhatsApp and call, placed where a thumb can hit them.
- • Job photos if you send them. A DB board you actually wired beats stock lighting.
- • A fast mobile page you can put on a Google listing, invoice and van.
COC notes without making claims we cannot check
Customers look for a registered electrician when they need a Certificate of Compliance. If you want that on the page, put the wording you are happy to stand behind in the brief: the kind of COCs you issue, the areas you cover, and any registration detail you already use on invoices.
Makesite will not generate a registration number, a licence, or a claim that you are registered if you did not write it. If the field is blank, the page stays blank on that point. That is slower than inventing trust copy, and it is the only honest way to do it.
What this page is not
It is not a dispatch board, a quoting engine, or a live booking calendar. Emergency call-outs still happen on the phone. Booked installs still happen on WhatsApp. The website is the link that makes those conversations shorter, not software that runs the day.
It is also not an online shop and not a large multipage service catalogue. If you need product listings, a customer login, or a van schedule, this is the wrong product. For website design prices in South Africa, the Makesite number is R649 once for one page.

FAQ
What should an electrician's website include?
The work you do (installs, faults, COCs, solar if you offer it), the suburbs or towns you cover, registration or compliance notes from your brief if you want them shown, job photos, and a clear WhatsApp or call path.
How much does an electrician website cost with Makesite?
R649 once. No monthly fee from Makesite. You see a live link in about 72 hours and pay only if you keep it. See website design prices in South Africa for how that sits next to typical built-for-you work.
Can you mention COCs and registered electrician status?
Yes, if you put those details in the brief. We do not invent registration numbers. If you leave them out, the page will not pretend you hold a number we have not seen.
Is this a dispatch app or a job-management system?
No. It is one page customers can open on a phone. It is not a shop, not a booking platform, and not software for running your van board.
How many changes do I get after I pay?
Five reasonable changes in the six months after you pay and claim the site. Work beyond that is quoted separately.
Do you only work in the Western Cape?
No. Anywhere in South Africa. The job runs on a written brief, WhatsApp and a live link, so your town does not change the R649 price or the about 72 hour timeline. We are based in Cape Town.
Ready to see it?
No payment until you decide to keep the site.
