I have given several tips on other blogs on how to save money on car insurance but have only minimally covered it here.

So, today I thought I’d give you a few more tips on how you can really save on your auto insurance.

Know How Your Premium Is Calculated

If you want to save on auto insurance it’s important to know exactly how your auto insurance premium is being calculated.

These are the factors that the insurance companies look at the most:

  • Credit Score
  • Driving History
  • Claims History

These are by far the three factors that are most heavily weighted in the calculation of your insurance premium. Other factors are considered as well such as the type of vehicles on your policy, your marital status, location, drivers, and coverage amounts.

Ways to Save Money on Your Auto Insurance

The biggest thing you can do to keep your auto insurance costs down is make sure you keep a good credit score and keep a clean driving record and only file claims if it’s an absolute must!

You can also look for discounts that insurance companies offer such as the following:

  • Homeowner’s Discount
  • Multi policy Discount
  • Education Discount
  • Advanced Quote Discount

Most of the time these discounts will be automatically added to your policy. However, if you don’t think you’re receiving a discount that you qualify for you should contact your insurance agent.

If you only need insurance temporarily for things like borrowing a friend’s car or to test drive a car you can get daily car insurance from Insure Daily. By doing this you’ll only be paying for insurance on the days you need it.

I would never suggest lowering your liability limits in order to save money on car insurance. You never know what’s going to happen and you need an adequate amount of liability coverage.

Conclusion

If you can concentrate on keeping your credit score, claims record, and driving record in good standing you shouldn’t have much of a problem keeping your insurance bill under control.

It’s also important to note that different vehicles costs different amounts to insure. If you’re in the market for a new vehicle you should call your agent to get a quote so you can see the impact the vehicle has on your auto insurance before your purchase it. It may be the deciding factor!

    to interview, whoo would it be. It must be able to cover the value
    of your property. We know it is, but we are here to tell you
    that it is completely possible.

    So when you make low down payment on your
    home purchase, you pay for the insurance premiums onn a monthly basis till you can build up sufficient equity in your home.
    You are required to attend classes and study about the laas and regulations related to
    mortgage and the details related to it. It can also be paid
    for iin notes, but which will tie up funds that may be available for emergencies or other investments.

    This design is spectacular! You certainly
    know how to keep a reader amused. Between your wit and your
    videos, I was almost moved to start my own blog (well, almost…HaHa!) Excellent job.

    I really enjoyed what you had to say, and more than that, how you presented it.
    Too cool!

    While not all conditions in men can be managed with
    homeopathic remedies, there are many cases of low testosterone that can be linked to a complication in metabolism and
    deficiency in monounsaturated fats. Abnormal blood tests and hormones may
    reveal a multitude of potentially serious conditions or offer reassurance
    of normal body functioning. An interesting study would be the effects of D-Asp and Tribulus together in healthy male adults.
