What's next for Travel Insurance Guide?

Posted Wednesday 11th June 2008 by Jen

Hi everyone, As a follow on from Paul’s blog helping you find the best Travel Insurance, I thought I would introduce myself and tell you all a bit about the work I have been doing on our newly re-launched Travel Insurance Guide.

My name’s Jennie and I work on the usability and content side of things for Fubra’s network of websites. Most recently I have been putting my efforts into improving the Travel Insurance Guide by coming up with new features, re-designing the layout and researching content to enhance the information we provide to visitors. One of the developers, Matt Ward, has been working on getting the new features ready and they are now live on the site!

How to find a travel insurance policy

Posted Sunday 11th May 2008 by Jen

Our developers stayed late on Friday night to get our new and improved Travel Insurance Guide launched. The aim of the site is pretty simple: to help people find the best travel insurance cover for them.

When looking for their holiday insurance, some people will just want the cheapest deal, others will want the most comprehensive cover, but most will want good value with a combination of both. Our site will help them achieve that.

To do this we knew that we needed to cover the whole market rather than aligning ourselves with a specific provider. At the time of writing, we have 68 providers featured on the site and our researchers have been busy comparing each of these to find out who offers the best price and level of cover.

Right now the site offers an editorial comparison system, a providers directory, travel insurance help and advice and a guide to policy basics. In the coming months we will also be launching a forum where users can share their tips and experiences with the rest of the world.

If you are a travel insurance company who is not featured on the site, then please get in touch.
