Many agents can sell you a policy. Some companies market life insurance online, with or without agents. You can find quotes, send an application, and sometimes even make your purchase online.

Some firms quote over 100 or more policies, and some Web sites can connect you with many different agents and/or companies. For example, see InsureMe.

Note that some companies that solicit online may be able to quote you lower-cost life insurance because you receive little or no personal assistance, but they may also cost the same, or even cost more. You must shop around for the best quote.
