Danielle is an absolute pleasure to deal with. She's knowledgeable, responsive and genuinely cares about finding the right insurance solution for each client. She takes the time to explain everything clearly and makes the whole process feel easy.

I have complete confidence referring clients to Danielle because I know they'll be well looked after from start to finish. Her professionalism, attention to detail and genuine care really set her apart. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a fantastic insurance broker.

I cannot recommend Danielle/Sol enough. After 5+ years with another broker, I changed to Sol this year and it was a great decision. Super responsive (which was a major pain point with my prior broker), open to digging deeper for a better suited policy and price and just all round helpful and efficient! Thanks so much!

Highly recommend Danielle for insurance purposes. Professional, seamless and no pressure from her in comparison to the larger companies who constantly ring about their quotes. Gives you time to think and work out your best options.
Danielle is friendly but prompt and stays focused on the request at hand. Recommend using Danielle for a personal, 1-1 experience without the pressure and judgements.

Amazing service, efficient, reliable and most of all...stress free. Dani, you are a star, thank you so much for sorting my new policies. A very different and better experience to that had with my previous Broker. Keep up the great work.

Danielle has been an absolute blessing for us. She reached out to me after seeing a disheartened and desperate comment by me in an online group. We had desperately been searching for coverage for our dream property in Tasmania - two other brokers (including a huge company with offices all over the country) had exhausted their options and not been able to help, and settlement was looming. Danielle was professional but also very friendly, warm and reassuring during my stressing out, and I knew she was going above and beyond to get this done! She kept me in the loop every step of the way...and succeeded in getting us a policy within a matter of days! I am so, so grateful, and cannot recommend her highly enough! She is amazing at what she does and is a genuinely wonderful human too!

It was so refreshing to have someone take the time to explain the important clauses of the professional indemnity insurance. The customisation was really good. Would highly recommend.

Danielle at SOL Insurance is amazing! Was a huge support during a really busy time when our insurances had lapsed and another broker hadn’t found a suitable alternative. Dani kept on top of things and acted fast to get us cover, and with a solid price point compared to what I had found with my own enquiries. Will absolutely use Dani again having come highly recommended to us, and I’d gladly recommend SOL insurance to others.

Danielle is fantastic. Very efficient and she got me an excellent quote/insurance. I highly recommend her, if you are like me a small business that has to cover insurance.

Insurance SEO Consultants May Need

01

Professional Indemnity Insurance

Is designed to help protect you against claims arising from an error, omission or technical mistake in the SEO work or advice you provide, such as a change that causes a client financial loss, subject to policy terms.

02

Cyber Insurance

Can help cover the costs following a data breach, hacked account or ransomware event affecting the client websites and platforms you access, subject to policy terms.

03

Public Liability Insurance

Is designed to help protect you against claims for third-party injury or property damage arising from your business activities, subject to policy terms.

04

Business Insurance (Portable Equipment)

Can help cover your laptop and other portable work equipment against risks such as theft or accidental damage, subject to policy terms.

Depending on your business and circumstances, additional covers may include, but are not limited to, Business Interruption, Personal Accident & Illness, Workers Compensation and Management Liability, where relevant and subject to policy terms, conditions and exclusions.

Risks we commonly see in SEO consulting businesses

A technical change to a client's website, such as a botched migration or redirect error, causing a drop in traffic or revenue

Recommending a link-building or content practice that results in a Google penalty or de-indexing

Holding admin access to a client's website, analytics or search console account that is compromised

A missed deadline or delayed implementation that causes a client to miss a planned launch or promotion

Incorrect tracking or analytics setup leading a client to make a costly decision based on wrong data

A technical error, such as a stray noindex tag or broken canonical, left live on a client's site and causing a measurable drop in rankings

Important: The information provided on this page is general in nature and does not take into account your individual circumstances. Insurance cover, terms, conditions and exclusions vary between insurers and policies. Your insurance requirements will depend on your business activities, contracts, assets and individual circumstances. Please refer to the relevant policy wording and documentation for full details of cover. The risks listed above are general examples only, for illustrative purposes, and do not confirm that your individual policy will respond to any particular claim.

Frequently asked questions

Does professional indemnity cover me if my SEO advice causes a client's site to be penalised by Google?

It can respond to a claim that your advice or work caused the client a financial loss, subject to your policy terms, but it doesn’t cover the penalty itself, such as reversing a Google action. It’s worth discussing your specific services with a broker so your cover matches how you actually work.

It can. Holding login access to client platforms is a genuine cyber exposure, since a compromised account could expose client data or be used to make unauthorised changes. Cyber insurance is worth considering alongside professional indemnity.

Public liability generally responds to third-party injury or property damage, which is less likely if you work only online, but many clients and platforms still require you to hold it before they’ll engage you. Talk to us about whether it’s relevant to how you work.

Yes, sole traders can generally obtain professional indemnity and other business insurance regardless of whether it’s a full-time or side business, though your declared income and scope of work will factor into your policy.

Portable equipment cover can generally include your laptop and related equipment against theft or accidental damage while working from different locations, subject to policy terms and any security conditions.
