How to Track 404 Errors for Insurance
Someone needs car insurance. They’ve been getting quotes from three different companies. They click your website from a Google ad, excited to see your rates. The quote form? Broken. The landing page? 404 error. They’re onto the next insurer in seconds.
This is happening right now on insurance websites everywhere, and it’s killing conversion rates.
Why 404 Errors Matter for Insurance
Lost Quote Requests: Insurance is a high-competition industry. Prospects bounce instantly when pages don’t load.
Ruined Ad Campaigns: If you’re paying for Google Ads or Facebook leads, broken landing pages waste your entire budget.
Professional Image Damage: Insurance is about trust. A broken website suggests you can’t be trusted with their policy.
SEO Drop: Google pushes down websites with excessive errors. Your visibility drops for important local searches.
How to Check in GA4
Log into GA4 and go to Engagement, then Crashes and Errors. This shows you all pages where users encountered 404 errors.
Focus on your key conversion pages. Look for errors on quote forms, individual product pages (like /auto-insurance or /home-insurance), and agent bio pages.
Set up a weekly check routine. Insurance sites change frequently with new rates and products, so errors happen often.

Quick Wins
Audit Quote Form Links: Every time you add a new insurance product, test all links to the quote form.
Use Persistent URLs: Keep your insurance product URLs consistent. If you must change them, set up redirects.
Verify Third-Party Links: If you’ve partnered with other agents or brokers, check that their links to your site still work.
Test Mobile Quote Flows: Most insurance shopping happens on mobile. Test every step on a phone.
Create a Custom 404: When prospects hit a dead end, show your most popular insurance products and a phone number.
Fix those broken links and watch your quote conversion rates improve.
