How Smart SEO Helped This Electrician Adapt to AI—and Grow Leads by 80%

The Challenge

Stagnant Visibility and Loss of High-Intent Clicks in a Competitive Market

Despite strong brand recognition and a loyal customer base, this electrical contractor saw a drop in key areas of Google Search. Once-dominant keywords like Tesla charger installation and electrical panel upgrades began losing traction—especially in AI Overview and local 3-pack results. With search behavior evolving rapidly, the company needed a strategy that kept them top-of-mind and top-of-page.
