HAKKEN · SEO for Insurance
Van Insurance SEO Agency
We help van insurance brands rank for the courier, trade and fleet searches made by people who need cover to work.
Why van insurance marketing is so expensive
Van insurance buyers are working people in a hurry. Couriers, builders and fleet managers search with urgent, price-led intent, and the aggregators are waiting for all of them.
Insurance is the most expensive category in paid search. WordStream puts the average insurance CPC at $54.91 (about £43), the highest of any industry. Every click you rent is a click your organic visibility could own.
But the market is not one market. Carriage of own goods, hire and reward, courier and fleet are different products with different searches.
Cover that segmentation properly and you meet each driver with the exact page they need, before the comparison table does.

Why van insurance SEO is different
Use case defines everything. A courier doing hire and reward, a builder carrying tools and a fleet manager insuring twenty vans are three different buyers, and Google rewards sites that treat them differently.
The gig economy keeps creating new demand. Delivery work, multi-app couriering and flexible fleets generate searches that traditional insurers cover poorly.
Trust is won with specifics. Pages that talk about tools in transit, goods in transit and public liability alongside the van itself convert tradespeople because they mirror real working life.
Van Insurance SEO for AI search, ChatGPT and LLMs
Drivers ask ChatGPT what insurance they need to deliver for the apps. The engines answer from the sites that explain hire and reward properly.
We structure that content so AI search cites your brand, and pair it with the rankings work that wins the classic searches.
This is not a bolt-on. Optimising for large language models and classic search from the same content is how we work by default.
