A website for every member agency, without becoming their web designer

Aggregators, clusters, captive programs and carrier agent programs all run into the same request: "can you give us a website?" Saying yes is easy once. Saying yes three hundred times, keeping every site reviewed and knowing what happens when an agency leaves, is the hard part. This page walks through that operation.

TL;DR

Three network shapes, three different answers to "whose site is it?"

Before choosing any platform, settle who owns what. The answer changes with the kind of network you run.

Network typeWho usually owns the agency's brandWhat should happen to the site when they leave
Independent agency cluster or aggregatorThe member agencyThey take their domain and content with them
Captive or exclusive agent programThe carrier or programThe site comes down; the agent's personal domain, if any, is released
Franchise-style agency brandThe franchisorThe site is reassigned to the next owner of the territory

Write the answer into the membership agreement. A network that never decided ends up arguing about a domain at the worst possible moment, while a book of business is moving.

We.Inc supports all three. For members who take their site with them, every site's code can be downloaded as a ZIP or synced to GitHub, so "you can take it" is a real promise. For programs that keep the site, pausing or removing the client account keeps control with you, and removed clients stay findable in your register.

Review before publishing, without a backlog

Insurance advertising is regulated, and the rules vary by state and by line of business. Most networks already have someone who reviews ads; the question is how website changes reach that person.

We.Inc has one approval step. You can switch it on for the whole network and off for the agencies you trust, or the reverse. When an agency with approval on presses Publish, the request lands in a queue for your team, who approve and publish it or ask for changes.

A practical review checklist for agency sites, worth copying into your compliance manual:

CheckWhy it matters
Agency legal name and licence details appear where your state requiresMany states set disclosure rules for producer advertising
Carrier names and logos are used only as each carrier allowsCarrier appointment agreements often control logo use
No "lowest price" or "guaranteed savings" claims without supportUnsupported savings claims are a common complaint
Testimonials are real and attributed with permissionInvented reviews are both a regulatory and a search risk
Quote forms ask only what the callback needsKeep driver's licence numbers and health details out of a simple contact form
Every page has a named human contactMembers of the public want to know who will call them back

This checklist is a starting point, not legal advice. Your state department of insurance and your carriers set the actual rules.

Give agents the edits they make every week

Agencies change their websites for small reasons: a new producer joins, a Saturday closure, a seasonal note about hurricane prep or open enrollment. If each of those needs a ticket to your marketing team, the sites go stale.

*The visual editor. Agency staff can change text, images and buttons directly; your reviewer sees the result before it goes live if approval is on.*

Decide per agency whether it can run a blog, forms, or its own SEO settings. A cluster with experienced members might allow all of it; a captive program might keep SEO central and give agents only content edits.

Producer onboarding and offboarding

Agency staff change often. Each member agency signs in on a page that carries your network's brand, not ours, and you can choose the logo, colours and login layout.

*Members sign in on your brand. Most will never know which platform runs it.*

When an agency leaves, your own records matter as much as the software. The audit log records account-level actions, such as a client being paused or removed or its switches changing, and owners and admins can filter it by action. It does not record every edit to a paragraph.

A rollout plan for a network of 100 to 500 agencies

  1. Pick ten pilot agencies of different sizes and lines: personal lines, commercial, life and health, one brand new agency.
  2. Write your defaults from what the pilot taught you: approval on or off, which features each tier gets.
  3. Build a small set of starting designs for your network. Each agency then adds its own team, story and local content.
  4. Invite in waves of 25. Watch how many publish within a week; the platform can send a webhook when a client "hasn't published 7 days after joining", which you can route to the person who chases them.
  5. Retire the old sites only after the new one is live and the domain points at it.

Do not build three hundred sites with the same body text and a different agency name. Google's spam policies treat many pages "generated for the primary purpose of manipulating search rankings" as scaled content abuse. A shared design is fine; each agency should tell its own story.

Billing your members, or not

Some networks include the website in membership; others charge for it. If you charge, We.Inc lets you set your own client plans and collect payment through your own connected Stripe account, so the invoice comes from you. The reseller billing page explains how that works. We do not publish our own prices for white-label; we quote them in the demo.

Questions to put to any website vendor, including us

Networks that have run a member website program before tend to ask the same things the second time round. Use these in any evaluation:

QuestionWhy it matters for an agency networkOur answer
Can a member leave with their site?Independent members will ask before they joinYes: code download or GitHub sync
Can you lock the program brand while letting agencies edit content?Brand and compliance stay centralBrand settings are yours; agencies edit within the switches you set
Is review per agency or all-or-nothing?New members need more review than veteransPer agency, with a network default
Who supports the agency's staff?Your team cannot answer every "how do I"Help pages show your support address; agree the split in the demo
What do you not do?Avoids a surprise in month threeNo quoting engine, no agency management integration, no certifications claimed
What happens to the data if we leave you?Your exit matters as much as theirsEvery site can be exported; see our vendor exit guide

If a vendor cannot answer the last two plainly, treat that as the answer.

Where We.Inc fits, and where it does not

Good fit: a network that wants every member agency to have a credible, reviewed, easy-to-update site under the network's control, without hiring a web team.

Not a fit: if you need comparative rating, policy servicing or a client document portal inside the website. Those belong in your agency management system or quoting platform; link to them from the site. We do not claim integrations with any specific agency management system.

Frequently asked questions

Can a member agency take its website when it leaves?

If your agreement allows it, yes. Every site’s code can be downloaded as a ZIP or synced to GitHub, and the agency keeps its own domain.

Can our compliance team review changes before they go live?

Yes. Switch on approval before publishing for the whole network or for chosen agencies. It is a single approval step by your team.

Does the website include insurance quoting?

No. There is no rating or quoting engine in the site builder. Link to the quoting tool your agencies already use.
