Does Your Website Work Well?

Gone are the days of people going through yellow pages and calling up random companies for quotes.  They either go direct to you  or though a price comparison site to find insurance (car insurance, home, pet, life etc.).

Does your site work as well as it can do?  Is it generating enough enquiries? Maybe talking to a marketing company, someone experienced in the sector that can look at conversions?

How Mobile Friendly Is Your Website

Since 2014 the search engines rank websites based on their mobile usability.

Web design for insurance companies needs to factor mobile usability into your website and make it with a responsive web design to ensure it ranks well.

How Much Will Website Design Cost?

For this you will need to draw up a brief, or plan, of what sort of site you are looking for, before approaching several web designers for costings.

You should consider what will be involved, not only in terms of having the best design, but also that it will need to be updated daily and have SEO work performed daily.  Smaller more local companies or brokers do not need such dynamic websites; however, they do need them to have certain features:

  • The ability to find a quote on-line
  • The ability to allow customers to login to their account
  • The ability to modify a policy
  • Support and customer service features
  • Legal information and links to industry support

All of these features will take time to create and update, manage and support.

They are one of the most expensive forms of site to create, owing to the tasks that are required to done on a daily basis. Most insurance companies opt to get listed on price comparison sites, such as confused, comparethemarket.com and gocompare, so that quotes are obtained through them.

The industry is overseen by the financial standards authority.

Remember Your Marketing

Once your website is created, the challenge for any insurance company is marketing, getting people to your website and converting website visitors into policy holders.

In the short term, PPC advertising is a quick way to get your website in front of people searching for insurance quotes.  Since there are over 4 million searches for insurance each month, being seen on the search engines is essential. 

In the long tern, search engine optimisation is needed, however since the insurance industry is so competitive, getting your insurance website onto the first page of search engines is going to be a huge challenge.

Marketing for insurance companies is essential, even though there are only around 400 insurance companies in the UK, the insurance sector is the most competitive industry in the UK.

Remember To Be Social

A bit part of marketing for insurance companies is social media marketing.

Since the first social media website launched in 2004, search engines have put more and more authority of your ‘social media footprint’.

If you are posting on different social media websites each week about your insurance offers or changes to the insurance guidelines, the search engines will take notice of this.
