If you want the right kind of SEO marketing for your insurance agency, then you need to find a real insurance marketing pro; ideally one with experience in the insurance industry. There are not a lot of SEO outfits that fit that bill, so when you find one, it’s time to find out what they can do specifically for you. Marketing insurance is difficult on a good day, and in this economy, you need all the help you can get. It’s a competitive industry and you want to stand out ahead of the pack.

Of course by now, you likely already have a website but perhaps are not that thrilled with the way it is, or is not, performing for you. You get visitors, but they don’t stay long. They sometimes ask for quotes, but then don’t respond to your call. This issue could be solved in a variety of ways. For instance, you may not yet have added an instant quoting function to your website. This will jump your traffic quite nicely and offer customers what they want – instant information.

Insurance websites with an instant quoting function do provide more quotes and write more policies than a site that does not offer a service like that. People want things right away when they make up their minds that the time is right to buy something, and that includes insurance policies. If your website offers them what they want and you follow up and provide excellent service, you will start converting your traffic to sales —- a huge bonus.

If you do not yet have a website and want to get going, then you need a design team with insurance experience building insurance websites. Throw in the SEO experience, a dynamite web designer, solid writing for your monthly articles and news releases (to keep the search engines happy) and you have a winning combination. Think it is expensive? It does come with a price tag, but a properly designed SEO marketing strategy offers you the highest ROI for your marketing dollars, and bottom line, it is more affordable than advertising on the radio, in papers and magazines or on T.V.

Besides, there is another adage about spending money to make money that holds true in these kinds of circumstances. If you want to attract customers and increase your revenue, you need to have a site that captures their attention and converts them to customers.

Think back over the last few times you have been surfing on the Internet – perhaps looking at your competitor’s websites. What stood out the most for you? See something you really like and want to emulate? Loved the colors on one site and think they would work well for yours? Think that being really off-the-wall creative will gain you more traffic?

Do you remember which insurance website was the easiest to read? Probably not, because that is one of its selling points. Easy to read, eye appealing, easy to remember content and in black and white, right? Black text on white space is easier to read, and even though you may love the idea of being colorful, your website visitors may not like it. For instance, you do not want to have red text on a black background – which makes the letters seem like neon, pulsating lights – and you do not want to try white text on soft gray, for that “see if you can guess if there is text on this website” effect.

No one is saying don’t have color on your insurance website, as color is terrific for websites. It’s just that the color should only be used in/on page borders, graphics, the odd bit of flashy text perhaps and other enhancing elements on the site. But when it comes to text, stick to the tried, tested and true combination of black text on a white background.

That being said, color of course, is not the only element to consider carefully before having an insurance website designed. Step back and take a look at the bigger picture. What do you want your website to achieve; besides a good ranking on Google? You want it to be memorable, useful, professional, interactive, interesting and eye-catching (but not in a gaudy way).

Overall, the site has to pique people’s interest. Offer them something they want and need. Provide them with relevant information. Offer products they need and want. In other words, an insurance website needs to be chockfull of all the things someone could want when they are searching for the right insurance policy for their situation. It also needs to be done in up-to-the-minute coding to comply with the latest changes in browsers, mobile compliant and ready-to-go to be hooked into social media platforms.

There are a lot of things to do, as insurance marketing is not a 1-2-3 process any longer. If you’re not sure what needs to be done, find a qualified search engine optimization company with insurance industry experience. It will look good on you.

Insurance website are really best left to stand alone on their own devices, as background music may drive potential customers away, which is counterintuitive. However, if you insist that some music be present, work in partnership with the website designer and add in soft button rollover sound effects. If the music or sound effects are not intrusive or obnoxious, it can then be a subtle complement to the overall site.

Think long and hard about what your message is before adding extra doo-dads to it that might affect the overall image. Your insurance agency is your business and a direct reflection on you; so ideally, your insurance website should reflect professionalism, carry up-to-date information on the latest changes in the insurance industry, offer instant quotes and have a current blog with interesting facts and figures for people to read.

It’s a good idea to have fresh content in the form of articles and news releases, at least once a month, or more often if you are maintaining your own website. Most insurance agents these days have enough on their hands just running their brick and mortar location, without worrying about what is happening online. Ideally, to boost your online presence, find a search engine optimization firm with experience in the insurance industry. They understand your needs and requirements better than anyone. After all, they have “been there and done that.” Experience like that can help your web presence immensely.

Another gimmick to stay well away from if you are tackling your own website creation is centering all the text down the middle of the page in a strange font with an unusual background color. Think about that for a minute and you will realize that the main reason most text on the Internet is black on white relates directly to the fact that it is easy to read.

Put red text on a black background or pale green text on a blue background and the only thing you get is irritated readers that cannot read the text. If they can’t read the text or it’s just too much work trying to decipher what it says, they leave. Since you are in business to make money, driving website visitors away with a poorly designed site costs you business.

Not sure how to design an insurance website that looks good, loads fast, offers top notch information and is professional and gets attention? Hire the job out. It’s the best money you will ever spend.

Okay, the honest truth is that yes, Twitter can be a bit silly, and you might wonder why you would want to plug your business into the service. The best answer to that question is that Twitter is not just addle-pated commentary. It actually has real, legitimate people on it, and those people are an audience that generates web traffic to your insurance website.

In today’s online world, marketing any kind of business requires some form of social media networking. It’s just how it works. More and more of your audience use mobile devices daily and some even use them exclusively. It’s a market you need to woo, and the only way to do that is to appeal to them by using social media. So yes, that means Twitter and Facebook and other networks that reach your existing demographics, and those you want to court for business.

But back to your insurance website. Just what would you need to make it “socially” compliant and ready to roll? There are a couple of ways that you could go, using plugins. What is used is largely dependent on what type of platform your website and/or blog is built on. Other than that, it’s a relatively simple concept. Here is how it works: when you blog, you post a Tweet. That Tweet links back to your website. And, when you Tweet, you can post a blog on your website. Sweet. Easy. Simple and you can get downright creative with the whole idea too.

Not sure this kind of feature is something you need for your insurance website? Then call the experts and ask more questions. Your best bet is to contact a search engine optimization company with many years of experience in the insurance industry. Now that gives your insurance marketing plan a whole new life, your blog a new attitude and your Tweets a bit of relish.

If your goal is to grow your business, social media is a fast and interesting way to do it. It also gives you a good return on your investment.

Ignoring consumer trends in the social media may mean big trouble for your business. Consumers are the beacons of change, the origin of what is trending at any given time in the online world. If you want your insurance agency to be a success, you need to keep in step with the latest in online trends relating to what customers want when it comes to insurance.

Your market is highly diverse and has many cultural components. What that means is that not all of your policies may suit everyone, large and small. This is something that you need to be aware of and have alternatives for those who do not wish traditional insurance coverage, or will not buy certain policies due to other beliefs. Since this is your business, you need to know how to best provide service to that market segment, because even if you only have one customer like that, they are linked, by word-of-mouth to hundreds of others. If you serve them well, you stand a good chance of landing more customers.

Today’s marketing must involve social media and the use of mobile devices. This is a whole other market compared to the online world you are likely used to working in for the last few years. Now, your insurance website needs to be easily viewed on a regular computer and a smartphone. You need to know, in detail, what your demographics are by culture to get a firm grip on how to market your products. Your market needs to be targeted in precisely the right manner to get a good return on your marketing investment dollars.

To be in step today, marketing needs to involve cutting edge social media optimization, and employ a variety of social networks, such as Twitter and Facebook. There are a number of ways to accomplish that and it may also be done by using mobile advertising utilizing a tailored, custom-made pay-per-click campaign.

Insurance marketing online is basically the same as it has always been, with a social media twist with other exciting options to expand your ability to market your products. The bottom line is still the same as well, and that is if you give your customers what they want, they give your their business. One way to do that is to offer customers mobile apps and social network profiles that make their lives easier. Offer coupons and specials that are interesting, and at some point, include the use of the word “free.” That catches people’s attention in a hurry.

Of course, you cannot do all this on your own. Find a company with search engine optimization experience, one with roots in the insurance industry, and find out what they can do for you. It’s the best investment of marketing dollars you will ever make.

You are proud of your insurance website and put a lot of work into it. You did everything right, as far as you know, but in tracking your online traffic, you discover potential clients did not go past your home page. What’s up with that? By the way, this happens to a lot of insurance agents, so don’t worry too much.

What’s happening is this: your new website was designed to get attention from the search engines, but that alone is not enough. It needs to do more than just sit there and look pretty. Pretty might appeal to some visitors, but they are not visiting your website to look at how nice it is, they are there to get information and buy a product. If your site does not offer them what they need, they will leave – in droves.

While your website might be pretty nifty, or was done the way you asked for it to be done, the results are not making you happy. Here is something you can do to find out what is going on, and what you can do to turn things around: Perform usability testing. This means asking a wide variety of experienced online users to visit your site, and give you feedback. Remember, your site was not designed just for you and your staff, it is for customers who want to use your services and buy your products, and that is a different point of view.

If you can put yourself in your customer’s shoes, you have a better chance of designing something they need and want to help them make informed decisions about their insurance needs. When your users offer feedback, immediately fix what does not work, is vague or that no one seems to understands. Then stick with what works, and learn the lesson of seeing your insurance website through the eyes of your potential customers.

If you do not have the experience to design your own website, or even track the results when people visit it, then consider hiring an experienced search engine optimization company, with a proven track record. Find one with a track record in the insurance industry, and you have two birds in one bush, and are well on your way to having a website that does what you need it to do – perform and convert customers.

Just because it takes two components to make an effective search engine optimized website perform well on the Internet, that does not mean you need two kinds on online companies, marketers and designers. Ideally, those two necessary components work as one to produce what you need.

There is a long-standing debate over making a website chockfull of words or making it pretty. Both are right, because if you design an ugly website with good content, visitors are not likely to convert. So, no matter how much traffic that website may get, it does you no good in the long run.

Check this out for yourself by surfing Google for your competition. The first page-ranked websites are well designed, clean, professional, and crisp and upload fast. They also have superior content. It is no surprise these insurance websites rank where they do. It is simple: clean, professional websites convert better and rank higher – period.

You may be wondering why many SEO companies don’t pay much attention to professional website design. SEO companies are typically run by analytical specialists, whose main goal is to get a website ranked well. They are not artists or designers. This is why it takes two to tango when performing SEO on an insurance website. Both factions make the whole shebang work seamlessly.

In the design phase, ask the designer what strategy they use to maximize your SEO exposure. Understand they do not deal with the analytical side of this equation, but they do understand what not to do to allow the SEO gurus to do their job when they are done. For instance, they strive for a clean look, with calls to action at the top of the page. This strategy converts well. You may see that in action by checking out insurance websites with instant price quoting available to consumers, visible the moment they land on a page.

Chose to work with a guaranteed SEO company? If you are shooting for a first page ranking, the company may require you to update your website design to make it more Internet and search engine compliant. So, as you can see, design makes a “huge” difference. With easy to read text, that is straightforward, clear and to the point, an easy to navigate site and simple vertical layouts, the search engines will love your site – and rank you better. Sweet.

Here’s the scoop. Find a SEO company with an in-house website designer. Now you are well on your way to a good Google ranking.

Some insurance marketing companies lay claim to being insurance search engine optimization (SEO) gurus, but are they really? Usually not. There are very few SEO companies that can claim they have over 25 years of insurance experience. However, when you find such a company, this is the answer to your insurance marketing prayers.

One of the first things you should be told by an “expert” insurance SEO company is that your website needs to be created with conversion in mind and needs to be user friendly. That merely means is it easy to navigate, is the information on it easy to access, is it relevant information for users and are you easy to contact? While many think that insurance SEO in just about keyword placement, this is a myth. Insurance website optimization is not just about keywords, it is about optimizing the experience the user has when they visit your site.

At one time, websites thrived on inbound links. Then, Google said they were going to block paid links, link exchanges, website directories and any links about anything that had nothing to do with your insurance website. In other words, relevancy has become the watchword of the day. If it’s not relevant, and a quality link, it does not do you any good in your marketing and ranking attempts. Relevant, quality links are real links and thus valuable for your website.

This isn’t to say you can’t still get links from some website directories, because you can, they just need to be respected and well, relevant. For instance, Yahoo Directory or Joeaunt.com.  Using insurance directories or resource guides helps to drive quality traffic to your site, because their content is relevant to your insurance website. The most important point here is that content driven links are highly valued. News releases, articles and blogs published within niche communities offer high quality links with long-term benefits.

One important thing to keep in mind is that your content, and any other activity, needs to be synced with LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook, and Google +. Today, social media is the driving force behind insurance website marketing. The more active your insurance agency, the better it looks to followers and the search engines.

If you want to be rock stars, find an insurance SEO company with experience in the insurance industry. Your insurance website and all other optimization techniques will be highly relevant, because they have the experience to market insurance websites.

If you do take the time to study some analytics relating to your insurance website, you might have run across the term, “bounce rate.” All that means is how many people visited one page of your site, and then click away form your site. If you have a high bounce rate, it usually means people just see the one page they landed on, and then they leave. If the bounce rate is low, this is generally good news, as it means visitors are staying on your site and checking out other pages.

Does it matter if people bounce off? Yes, it does, as the longer they stay, the higher the chances they become a customer, and convert by buying something. What can you do to reduce your bounce rate? If your insurance website only has one contact form on the home page, this significantly reduces the chances that someone fills it out. The solution is to have a short contact form on all the pages on your site. Keep in mind that visitors don’t always land on the home page.

Overall, you want a lower bounce rate, and want people to stay on your site longer and read the content. Having said that, is it a critical failure for your insurance website to have a higher bounce rate than you might like? The answer is no, a single page visit is not necessarily a bad thing, and does not affect your ranking. It means the visitor has found what they wanted, with either one or two clicks; a good sign for your insurance company.

Certainly, there are many ways to interpret bounce rate statistics, and this is something that will help you focus your website content. However, it is also something that not every insurance agent has time to do. This is where a top flight insurance search engine optimization (SEO) company comes to bat for you. They are able to not only help you choose the right content for your insurance website, but know the ins and outs of working with natural SEO conversion rates, and why, when dealing with “that” conversion rate, the bounce rate does matter.

Of course, SEO is more than just the bounce rate. It involves social media, news releases, articles, blogs and other connections, like Twitter and Facebook. For the whole picture that looks good on your insurance website, partner up with an insurance search engine optimization company. Reap the conversion rewards.

It’s a given that competition is tough on the Internet today, particularly in the insurance business. However, having said that, with the Supreme Court backing ObamaCare, business should start to pick up very soon. You will definitely need a viable, fresh, professional and socially-conscious insurance website to get your message out to potential customers. You want your products online with an instant quote application, good articles – containing your keywords – where your visitors can read them, up-to-the-minute news releases that discuss the latest happenings in the insurance industry and a bunch of ways to contact you right away.

Your website needs to get people’s attention and keep it. For this, you need the latest in insurance website design. Gone are the days of the chunky, clunky html code and the nice, but frantic looking websites crammed with information and links galore. These days, insurance search engine marketing is about being relevant to the times. We live in a social milieu where information is power. If you want your customers to make an informed decision about buying insurance, you want an insurance website that speaks directly to their needs.

In this day and age, with Twitter, Facebook and a whole host of other social media sites, you need to be present and active. It’s not just about getting your insurance information out to everyone, although that is part of the equation, it is about letting people know who you are, what you do, how knowledgeable you are and how you can help them find what they need. Visitors to your insurance website want to know something about you. Call it the social touch, but in reality, it is called relationship marketing. If your customers know you through your Twitter feeds and Facebook page, they feel they “know” you and will consider buying products and policies from you.

Once you have a clean, crisp and professional insurance website, loaded with the right kind of information, and enough of it to inform visitors, half the battle is won. You need to ensure you’re updating your website frequently with fresh and compelling copy that keeps your customers coming back.

Chances are you do not want to do this kind of behind-the-scenes work on your website yourself. Not a problem. Find an insurance search engine optimization company with experience in the industry, tell them what you want and need, and then let them do you proud. It’s just that easy, and worth the investment.

That is the start of a happy relationship between you and your clients.

Not sure what you want for an insurance website? That is easy. Take a look around you and find out what your competition is doing.

Okay, what is the bottom line in insurance marketing? You want to make your business a huge success. To do that, you need a clean, crisp and professional image online. You need a professional website that has the latest changes in coding, the hottest new plug-ins, a dynamic blog, news releases that are relevant to your customers and articles that have fresh content in them updated on your site at least once a month. Don’t have the time to do that? Hire it out.

Find a search engine optimization company that also has solid experience in the insurance industry, and start asking what they can do for you to help you make your presence known on the Internet. The answer is they can do a lot, starting with evaluating your existing site for upgrade potential, comparing it to your competition, checking the code it is built on, explaining new tags out there to help categorize your content for search engines and offering you a cohesive team that does their thing in the background – from start to successful finish.

Over time, your insurance website will start to move from where it is now to a better spot on page one of Google’s search engine results. Keep in mind that this kind of movement does not happen overnight. It’s like trying to lose weight fast. It takes time and effort. Such is also the case with search engine optimization. It takes time to build a proper website that reflects who you are and what your business is all about. It takes time to choose the right keywords and then use them properly to get honestly earned recognition from the search engines.

If you want fast, down and dirty results, you can go that route, but usually two things happen. The first is you peak fast and only stay up for about a week. The black hat methods only work for the short term. The second thing likely to happen is, if you are caught using some of the less-than-ethical methods of boosting your website rankings, your site is yanked. Why waste time and money on a flash in the pan, when you could invest in a stable future with a skilled SEO company that takes the time and builds your site and rankings with care, due diligence and integrity.

If your website is not functioning as well as you think it should be, perhaps it is time to take a hard look at what needs to be done to make it more successful. You want to convert those browsers to buyers. The only way to do that is to ensure that you have the right things going on with your site. In other words,  you need the right insurance search engine optimization (SEO) – search engine optimization that works for you and brings you business.

Working with SEO is sort of like building that better mousetrap. Everyone needs this kind of service and yet some still think they can do things on their own. Unfortunately, those without the experience to do SEO the right way will find their website buried deeply on page six or worse of Google’s website rankings. Not the best thing for your business.

You want and need people to know who you are, know about your business and find it on the Internet. You want them to interact with you, buy from you and talk to you and ask questions. The more interactive you are with your customers, the more they will remember you, which will mean business later on. You cannot accomplish this if your website does not rank well. Few people will go beyond page one of Google’s rankings to find what they want. Therefore, you want to be on page one. It is that simple, but complex at the same time.

The mostly simple part is that you need to expand what you offer on your website to include the latest and most interactive widgets and gadgets used in the 21st century to connect with the billions of people online. You need the social media, the blogs, the Twitter account and other things like an instant insurance quote function. People demand more online today than they ever have before. If you do not give it to them, they will go someplace else.

People want insurance information fast and they want it yesterday, so if you have the ability to offer them quotes yesterday, you have just given them something they really wanted  and they will remember that when they choose to buy. You need to find a search engine optimization company that will be your partner in the success of your business; one with insurance marketing experience of their own. They know your business, because they do it every day.

Keeping your insurance website vibrant, interesting and fresh is way more work that you first thought when you started doing the work yourself. Yes, your site may look really nice, but trying to keep it that way and keep it relevant is draining. You are also not seeing very good results in terms of conversions from visitors to buyers. Is there a problem with your site? Is it doing its job of insurance marketing or is it sending people back into cyberspace to look someplace else?

Overall, you just are not happy with how your website is performing. It is time to hand it over to the professionals and find out what insurance search engine optimization can do for you. If you find a company that does it all for you, so you can do your job running your brick and mortar business, you will have access to all the latest and hottest Web 2.0 features. There is nothing like up-to-date technology to spiff up your website and make it more relevant to surfers.

Wouldn’t you like to see your website rank way better on Google? Sure you would and that can happen with the right insurance search engine optimization strategy designed just for you. This takes time and skill and if you can do it on your own, that is great. However, there are a large number of people who do not understand the first thing about it. That is why it is best to stick with the experts. That is why hiring a team to work on your website will make all the difference in the world to your overall rankings.

Thinking budget might be a problem? Instead, try thinking about the money you are not making because people are not buying products on your site. If you could revamp things, keep your visitors and turn them into buyers, your investment in insurance search engine optimization would pay itself back tenfold; a smart business decision indeed.

Time for a change on your website? Time for a smart, crisp and no-nonsense professional web design with clear content? Then consider hiring out your new future success to a company that not only knows insurance search engine marketing like the back of their hand, but is actively involved in the insurance industry themselves. What more could you possibly ask for?

Want to snag competitive clicks from a competing insurance website? One of the ways to do that is to make sure you have an instant quote function on your website. People are in a hurry to get information these days and they do not want to waste time poking about a website trying to find out prices for various insurance policies. They want to know right away how much money they can expect to shell out for insurance. They also want to know what other options they have at their disposal.

If your insurance website offers visitors what they want to know immediately, within a few clicks, then you have kept them on your website long enough that they will likely convert – meaning buy insurance. If your quotes are reasonable, prompt, suitable and instant, you have a leg up on your competition. If you are readily available to assist those who have asked for instant quotes and can offer them other alternatives, then that will put you even further ahead yet.

If your insurance website is not up-to-date, clean, loads fast, offers instant quotes, great articles, current news and tips and a blog etc., your business is missing the showboat. Your website needs to be alive, dynamic, chockfull of useful information, personable and above all else, optimized to the max for your needs. You want to keep your visitors from clicking away to the competition. In other words, you want insurance search engine optimization (SEO) to work in your favor and bring you traffic.

Once the traffic is there, your site needs to meet the needs of the visitors. They do not just want health insurance quotes, they want information about how the various plans work, costs, how it will fit their needs, what they can do if they are on a budget and a whole host of other questions. If you have those answers, they will consider you the expert to do business with for their insurance needs.

To do all this, you need a professionally designed insurance website that gets your message across clearly. Think about this question for a second: What is the most important thing that I need to tell my customers? Once you have the answer to that, you have the core reason behind your website.

To get the right kind of insurance website, partner up with an insurance search engine optimization company. If you have an SEO company on your team, you will have a website that will be the talk of the town. You also want your SEO company to know what they are doing when it comes to insurance agency marketing. Find that company and your website will be tailored to Web 2.0 compliant and do you a world a business.

Even if your website is old hat, that does not mean you will not draw traffic. What it does mean though is that you will not get the same kind of visitors that you need these days to sell insurance. While you may be able to design a website yourself, chances are you honestly do not know the first thing about insurance search engine optimization. And really, why would you?

That is not your full time job; taking care of your insurance business and customers is your full time job. If you want to be a part of the now and stay up-to-date on the World Wide Web, check into insurance websites professionally designed by people who know SEO.

The focal point of your website needs to be something that makes people want to come back and buy insurance. Makes sense right? Insurance is a tough market these days and no one knows that better than you do. You need a website hat has some dynamite stuff on it, is eye-catching, interactive, a little bit edgy, offers down-to-earth information, superior customer service and shows the world you know your business like no one else does.

Most of all, you need your insurance website to be optimized for the right keywords and phrases to give you that extra edge over others; the edge that will, over time, get your site on the first page of Google. If you do things the right way the first time, your site will be well on its way to making a steady climb higher in the search engine results.

Remember, insurance marketing is as much about the website itself as it is about the person who runs that website and insurance company. Put another way, your insurance website is your face and place on the web. It is the place to let potential customers know who you are, what you offer, what your pricing structures are, where to find deals and so forth.

It is all about being personable, available and knowledgeable and on top of your business and web presence. It is all about people knowing who they are dealing with and feeling a connection; a connection that means they will buy insurance from you. And that is what insurance search engine optimization is all about, profiling your insurance business in a way that attracts the attention of buyers.
