Grow your agency with an effective life insurance website
Life insurance, while unpleasant for some to think about, is a necessary part of life that provides protection against uncertainty.
The process of choosing a life insurance provider can be daunting and confusing, which is why it’s so crucial that life insurance agents have a credible site that puts visitors at ease and carefully guides them through a sensitive process.
As a life insurance agent, your site should make it easy for visitors to understand your specific services, credentials, and the steps they’ll take to find the right life insurance policy for them. A professional, efficient website will provide a smooth client experience while also helping you generate more leads and sell more insurance policies with less effort.

Expand the reach of your life insurance services
Term life insurance, whole life insurance, universal life insurance.
Whatever your insurance agency specializes in, make sure it’s easy for website visitors to learn more about getting the policy they need. One of the best ways to accomplish this is by having individual web pages for each insurance category, policy, and service you sell, with a CTA button or next steps to get additional information.
Optimizing your life insurance site for both search engines and potential customers allows you to expand your reach and generate more traffic based on what your target audience needs. Adding conversion best practices like exit intent pop-ups and opt-in forms increases your chances of gaining clients and generating revenue.
Ingredients of great life insurance web design
Cohesive design and branding
Every page should flow and feel on-brand, as not to disrupt the visitor experience and distract from your insurance expertise. Be intentional about the images, layout, and design elements you use — all it works together to create a positive first impression and keep visitors on your site.
SEO and organic growth tactics
Optimizing your website for search engines and listings on relevant online insurance directories can help you drive more traffic, specifically qualified traffic that’s more likely to become clients. Investing a bit more in keyword research and content marketing can be a huge sales booster for your insurance firm.
Tools that convert visitors
With 16% of consumers admitting that they don’t have a life insurance policy but need one, website visitors are ripe for conversion — they just need a little push. Educational website content about the importance of life insurance, backed by conversion tactics like live chat, discount pop-ups, lead forms, banner ads, and dedicated landing pages for each of your insurance products can help you more easily win new business.
Convenient client features
A user-friendly online experience that allows prospects and clients to schedule appointments, pay you, and submit important documents helps you engage your contacts and increase revenue for your firm without wasting time on administrative tasks.
