I'm speaking from my perspective of other's perspectives.
That they are YC backed encouraged me to click and try it out. Otherwise, I would probably not have clicked at all.
(But YC backing isn't really enough for me to eagerly give out all that information, not until pg and yc is providing ebay like yc-clickers-insurance on their portfolio. :) )
Regarding the average user, I suspect that insurance companies have names like Prudential, All State, State Farm, and symbols like the Rock of Gibraltar, big old granite columned buildings, and stuffy images for a reason.
And um, leaky isn't doing it for me.
ymmv
- tptacek 15y agoI think you're wrong. For instance, there are health insurance search sites that demand more than this, and there's clearly enough affiliate money in health insurance to keep those things up and running. I think you're probably just a part of a small sliver of the market that is hypersensitive to this stuff.
