Insurance marketing agencies today often focus more on mobile traffic, but the balance between mobile and desktop depends on the audience’s behavior, intent, and the stage of the buying journey. With the rise of smartphones and increased time spent on mobile devices, mobile traffic has become dominant in terms of volume. Many consumers now search for quotes, read reviews, and compare insurance plans from their phones—especially for quick actions like auto or travel insurance.
However, desktop traffic still plays a critical role, particularly in high-value or complex insurance categories like life, health, or business insurance. These decisions often require more in-depth research, and users may prefer the larger screen, more stability, and easier form-filling capabilities of desktops. Agencies typically see higher conversion rates on desktop, especially for long-form applications or policy comparisons.
Smart insurance marketers don’t choose one over the other blindly. They analyze user behavior through analytics, segment their campaigns, and often run cross-device strategies. Mobile campaigns are optimized for speed, clarity, and short-form content, while desktop ads may support more detailed information and longer sessions.
Ultimately, insurance marketing agencies aim to meet the user where they are—whether that’s scrolling on mobile during a commute or comparing policies at home on a desktop—ensuring seamless performance across both channels.
