Responsiveness of Chubb Insurance Intermediary Agents Access Reflected in Web 3.0 Websites by Miami Web Design Firm

Focusing on results can be a painful process, but the benefit is broad
accessibility and high visibility on the Semantic Web

###

Fitch Ratings--a global ratings agency widely respected by investors and
underwriters--has just revised its sector outlook on the U.S. property and
casualty insurance industry upwards for both commercial and personal lines.
The change in outlook reflects their view that the industry has withstood
the current financial crisis reasonably well, particularly in comparison
with other financial services sectors. A major P&C player contributing to
that upward momentum is the Chubb Group of Insurance Companies, whose shares
recently traded at a new 52-week high. The stock market is bullish on Chubb,
and so is Agents Access Insurance.

From their offices in California and Florida, insurance intermediary Agents
Access functions as a Managing General Agency (MGA) recognized for
consistently providing independent agents with streamlined access to Chubb's
comprehensive lines of coverage for both individual and business risk
management. According to Arthur Falconi, President of Agents Access of
Florida, "For the fourth consecutive year, Agents Access of Florida has
received Chubb's prestigious Cornerstone designation, an award based on new
business, business retention and loss ratios. Of about 3,200 U.S. insurance
agencies that work with Chubb, less than seven percent earn this
distinction."

And what's the secret to their success? Quoting Gary Golnick, President of
Agents Access of California: "We focus on providing our network of
independent agents with fast response and reliable service. We've always
been just a phone call away, day or night. And with our new Web 3.0 design
by WebReDesignMiami.com, we'll be extending our presence and responsiveness
across the Semantic Web."

That new online presence for Agents Access consists of separate but similar
websites for their east- and west-coast insurance brokerage hubs:
Agents-Access.com for Florida, and AgentsAccessInsurance.com for California.
For both sites, the snappy flash-free and iPad-ready animation of each page
load reflects the agency's commitment to rapid response. Their
jQuery-enhanced source passes all seven tests of "Web 3.0 readiness" and
consists of W3C-validated tableless HTML5 and CSS3 with Unobtrusive
Javascript generated by custom-coded dynamic PHP for the LAMP platform
(Linux/Apache/MySQL/PHP). This professional standards framework and coding
discipline separates content from format and behavior and thereby optimizes
efficiency, accessibility and search engine visibility. The website template
leverages contemporary design conventions such as 1024-pixel screen display
optimization, layered PNG gradients and a 14-pixel default font, plus
integrated tools to facilitate browser branding, link-building and social
media integration.

For Web 3.0 designer and front-end developer Bruce Arnold, it's all about
"web design with results in mind"(tm). And as Arthur Falconi confirms,
that's no trivial task: "Bruce guided us through the maze of Semantic Web
design concepts, considerations and criteria, and made sure that our
websites are W3C-compliant and thereby search-optimized. He forced us to
focus on results and for our benefit, but it was otherwise a painless
process."
