“Buying car insurance online brings a series of important advantages. You can easily save time and money with the help of online quotes”, said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.


LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)

Compare-autoinsurance.org has released a new blog post that presents how to get the best car insurance policy online.

For more info and free car insurance quotes, visit https://compare-autoinsurance.org/the-best-way-to-buy-car-insurance-online/

Until recently, a person had to travel to an insurer’s office, schedule meetings with insurance agents, get quotes and finally, buy coverage. Now everything is easier and faster. Drivers can easily get car insurance quotes online and even purchase coverage online. Get free quotes and compare prices on http://compare-autoinsurance.org.


  • Knowledge is power. A thing that is true also on the auto insurance market. Buyers are advised to provide complete and correct data when asked. Honesty is also important, especially since insurance companies will also run some investigations before granting coverage. Provide correct data about the car’s make and model, driving history and traffic violations. Have all relevant documents nearby when getting quotes or purchasing coverage.

  • Determine which policies are necessary. After buying the minimum coverage imposed by the state, the driver will be free to choose extra coverage. For valuable cars drivers should buy comprehensive and collision coverage. Also, drivers should consider skipping PIP if they have a really solid life and health insurance plan. Otherwise, PIP insurance is a great addition. Roadside assistance and accident forgiveness are also 2 useful services, when and if available.

  • Carefully select the payment method and frequency. Although it may be tempting to pay 12 smaller premiums, each one every month, this is not the best solution. Usually, it is cheaper to pay a single premium in advance. The company will get rid of some administrative costs and it will also reduce the total sum a bit.

  • Establish some lines of communication with the insurer. Make sure to get as much info as possible about the claim handling process, when and how to contact the carrier and will they handle emergencies. And keep in touch with insurance agents.

  • Buy online car insurance. After determining the available budget and coverage needs, drivers can get the policy online. Furthermore, online quotes will help drivers get affordable coverage.

How To Get Cheaper Car Insurance Rates For Teen Drivers

Leave a comment


“Teens, although considered high-risk, can still get affordable car insurance premiums. Check our website for more info and tips”, said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.


LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)

Cheapquotesautoinsurance.com has released a new blog post that explains how teen drivers can get cheaper car insurance.

For more info and free car insurance quotes online, visit http://cheapquotesautoinsurance.com/teen-drivers-and-car-insurance-rates/

Teens are considered high-risk drivers and charged accordingly by insurance companies. The lack of experience behind the wheel and some risk behaviors associated with this age make car insurance more expensive. However, there are some ways to lower the bills. Find out more and get free car insurance quotes from http://cheapquotesautoinsurance.com.


  • Get good grades at college. Teens should be aware that there is a good student discount which will help them get cheaper car insurance. The value of this discount ranges widely between carriers, and in some cases, it can be more than 30% of the value of the premium. Clearly, getting a good student discount should be a discount worth pursuing. It is recommended for teens to ask about this discount before signing a contract. Also, ask the average grade needed to be eligible and what proofs must be provided.

  • Leave the car at home when studying in a different city. Leaving the car at home and driving it when returning during holidays, means that the student is less exposed to accidents. Reducing the risk of filing a claim will determine the insurance companies to offer cheaper premiums. Usually, there is a discount available to students who choose to keep the car at home.

  • Enroll in approved defensive driving classes. Insurers like safe drivers. Graduating a defensive driving course will convince them that the teen has the right skills and knowledge. After graduating, the teen must bring the diploma to the insurer. Of course, the insurer will validate only approved course. In many cases, insurers offer this type of course. Talk with the company before starting any defensive driving course.

How To Compare Car Insurance Discounts And Save Money -New Guide

Leave a comment


News Image

“Getting car insurance discounts will help save considerable amounts of money. But you must choose wisely the discounts and its provider.” said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.


LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)

Compare-autoinsurance.org has released a new blog post that explains how to compare car insurance discounts and save lots of money.

For more info and free car insurance quotes online, visit https://compare-autoinsurance.org/how-to-compare-car-insurance-discounts/

Being eligible for discounts is a safe way to lower car insurance costs. With the right discounts, a policyholder can save hundreds of dollars each year. It is recommended to do some research about available discounts provided by the current carrier. We also recommend policyholders to periodically check the market offers and use http://compare-autoinsurance.org to compare prices.


  • First of all, an insured must check the prerequisites. And each company may have different requirements for the same discount. For example, one company may impose a 10.000 miles a year for a low mileage discount, while another one may impose 8.500 miles. The same thing is applicable to all discounts.

  • Next, compare the values of the discounts. If both discounts have the same requirements, then they should offer the same discount. If not, then go with the discount that saves more money.

  • Clients must also check the availability period of the discount. A discount may be greater in savings value, but if it lasts only 2 or 3 months, in the long run, it would be a bad choice. Do some calculus and select the discount that will save the most money at the end of the availability period.

10 Tips to Minimize Thanksgiving Holiday Hazards, According to Mercury Insurance

Leave a comment


Thanksgiving should be focused on family, food and making memories – not recovering from a disaster.


LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)

Thanksgiving is a time family comes together to share a feast and their gratitude. However, for those who are playing host or traveling to be with loved ones, there are several items to check off the list to ensure the holiday goes off without a hitch. Mercury Insurance (NYSE:MCY) experts want to help policyholders enjoy a safe and happy Thanksgiving at home and on the road.

According to the National Fire Protection Association, unattended cooking is the leading contributing factor in cooking fires and fire deaths.

“Thanksgiving should be focused on family, food and making memories – not recovering from a disaster,” said Christopher O’Rourke, Mercury Insurance’s vice president of property claims. “It’s important for homeowners to pay attention to details like not leaving the stove unattended and, if they’re burning candles, keeping them away from anything flammable, and out of reach of children and pets. Taking a few simple steps to prevent holiday mishaps can make a world of difference for you and your loved ones.”

Here are five tips O’Rourke recommends to help ensure the dinner conversation is the only thing ablaze in your home:

1.    Don’t leave kitchen appliances unattended while in use. Reduce fire risks by keeping a watchful eye on the stovetop and oven to prevent food from burning or boiling over and potentially igniting a flame.

2.    Use caution when burning candles. Flameless candles are a safe, decorative alternative to wick-burning candles. Not only do they reduce fire danger, but they also last longer and are reusable.

3.    Keep a fire extinguisher handy. Even the most careful cooks can have an accident, so be sure to keep a fire extinguisher in the kitchen in case of emergency and train your family on how to use it.

4.    Save the holiday photos for #throwbackthursday. Avoid posting travel plans on social media letting people know you will be out of town – burglars could see that as an opportunity to loot your house while you’re away.

5.    Ensure smoke alarms are in working order. An alarm should be placed in or near the kitchen, on each level of your home and in all bedrooms or sleeping areas. Check them twice a year by pushing the ‘test’ button and replace batteries annually.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the Thanksgiving holiday – traditionally the start of the busy holiday travel season – sees an increase in crashes and fatalities. More than 50 million travelers take to the roads to journey to their destinations, leading to some of the busiest traffic of the year.

The National Women’s Business Council Announces Continued Support for Small Business Saturday

Leave a comment


News Image

“Women-owned businesses are increasing and the smart entrepreneur recognizes the impact that Small Business Saturday has on economic growth,” said Liz Sara, Chair of the NWBC. “We remain committed to ensuring that this day benefits the estimated 13 million women-owned businesses in the U.S.”.


WASHINGTON (PRWEB)

The National Women’s Business Council (NWBC), a non-partisan, federal advisory committee that serves as an independent source of advice and policy recommendations to the President, Congress, and the Administrator of the U.S. Small Business Administration on issues that affect women business owners and entrepreneurs, is calling upon the public to participate in this year’s Small Business Saturday (November 30) and support small businesses of all kinds.

After eight years of celebrating Small Business Saturday, consumers have invested about 85 billion dollars in small businesses, and these firms comprise 4.8 trillion dollars of the nation’s Gross Domestic Product according to the Small Business Economic Impact Study (AMEX).

The study also found that when a consumer shops at a local business, an average of 67 cents per dollar stays within the local economy unlike an average of 43 cents for large corporations. Small businesses also employ many residents from the local community, thus increasing their community’s overall economic growth through higher profits and lower unemployment. Consumers’ local impact during the busy holiday shopping season can be a game changer. Further, every dollar spent at small businesses creates an additional 50 cents in local business activity as a result of employee spending and businesses purchasing local goods and services.

The National Women’s Business Council is the federal government’s only independent voice for women entrepreneurs and fully understands the importance of this day. The Council has been committed to advocating for women-owned businesses for the past three decades.

According to The State of Women-Owned Businesses Report, there are nearly 13 million women owned firms in the U.S. accounting for 42% of all businesses. That means 4 out of every 10 businesses in the United States are now women-owned. Consumers should shop local women-owned firms on Small Business Saturday to ensure continued economic growth for women entrepreneurs.

“Women-owned small businesses are on the rise and the smart entrepreneur recognizes the impact that days like Small Business Saturday have on their economic growth,” said Liz Sara, Chair of the NWBC. “At NWBC, we remain committed to ensuring that this special day makes a difference and continues to benefit the estimated 13 million women-owned businesses across the country.”

About the National Women’s Business Council
