If you're an insurance agent, your website is the first place someone goes to decide whether or not to trust you with something that matters. Unfortunately, most insurance websites look like they were built in 2007 and haven’t been touched since. Vague language, boring stock photos, and zero personality fill many of their pages. That kind of site doesn’t help you grow your business. It just sits there with zero organic growth.
You don’t need a fancy website. You need one that works to help you get discovered and keeps leads flowing.
Your site should help potential clients quickly understand three things:
1. Who you are
2. What you do
3. Why they should choose you over another agent
If your homepage doesn’t make that clear in under 10 seconds, people are going to click away. And when they do that, they’re calling someone else and potential business disappears.
A good website builds trust. That happens with real photos, simple language, and a message that feels personal. If you specialize in helping young families or small business owners, say that clearly. Use photos of yourself, your team, or actual clients (with permission, of course).
Your website should do more than just look good. It should drive action. You need a clear call to action on every page. Something like:
"Get a free quote today"
"Schedule a quick call"
"Meet your local agent"
Keep it simple. No one wants to hunt around a site to figure out how to contact you.
People are viewing your website on their phones. If your website is hard to read or slow to load on mobile, it’s costing you leads. A good website adjusts to any screen and loads quickly. Most modern website builders like Squarespace, Wix, or WordPress themes do this automatically, so it’s easy to accomplish.
Don’t be afraid to make your website sound like you. If you’re known for being responsive or walking clients through tough choices, say that. Use words you’d use in a real conversation—not corporate buzzwords and jargon. Plain language builds trust, the main factor that makes someone want to work with you.
Here are a few examples of personal website lines you could use:
"Hi, I’m Lisa. I help small business owners make sure nothing slips through the cracks."
"When you're ready to stop researching insurance terms and just talk to someone who gets it, I'm here."
"I’ll help you find the right coverage based on your needs. It’s that simple."
If your current site doesn’t feel like it represents you—or worse, doesn’t bring in leads—it’s time for a change. A great website is your lead magnet. And when it’s done right, it becomes one of your best sales and retention tools.
