New brands join home insurance panel

Comparethemarket.com has added seven new brands to its home insurance price comparison service.

The latest new additions to the portfolio include: Kwik Fit, Endsleigh, Hiscox, Castle, Aim4agreatquote, Insureitall and Policyshop.

Jeremy Moll, commercial director of comparethemarket.com, said: “This year our home insurance quote volumes have increased by 300% and we anticipate further growth. We pride ourselves on building great commercial relationships with our insurance brands, to ensure that they benefit from a cost-effective means of reaching millions of customers.

"At the same time, we have our customers’ interests at heart. We only work with reputable brands to ensure we offer them the right policy at the best possible price. We welcome these new home brands to the panel and are looking to grow the panel further still.”

The company said that recent figures demonstrate that traffic to the site has more than trebled between December 2008 and February 2009 since it launched its advertising campaign, featuring Aleksandr, founder of comparethemeerkat.com.

Jeremy Moll continues: “We are waiting to see how the increase in visits will affect our market share. We hope to have secured third position in the UK price comparison marketplace based on consumer visits.”
