Life Insurance Advice You Can Trust

We have been a free online resource since 2000 for anyone interested in learning more about life insurance. Our goal is to be an objective, third-party resource for everything life insurance-related. We update our site regularly, and we have a directory of articles and guides to help you get started finding the cheapest life insurance rates!

Researching online can be tough. The types of coverage, factors affecting your rates, and best practices for finding the right provider vary drastically from website to website.

We’ve taken the hard part out of researching online and compiled the internet’s most comprehensive resources on related information.

LifeInsuranceTypes.com is not a government-run website, nor are we owned by any insurance provider.

Everything on this site is 100 percent free, and we aim to keep it that way.

As if that’s not enough.
