If you are looking for Freightbook as a freight forwarder directory and networking site, the short version is that the domain no longer serves that purpose.
What we found
Checked on 14 August 2026: freightbook.net returns a 301 permanent redirect to freightbooktraining.com, which sells an online training course for the heavy transport sector — seven modules, 71 sessions, £500 per user, taught by Marco J. van Daal and administered through DigiFreight. It is a legitimate product; it is not a directory, and there is no listing or networking function.
We are reporting what the domain does today, not speculating about the business behind it. If you hold a Freightbook listing or membership, contact them directly rather than relying on this page.
What to use instead
| If you wanted… | Use | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| A directory listing shippers can find | CargoLinked or Freightnet | Free; CargoLinked Connected $29/mo or $299/yr, Freightnet Premium $99/yr |
| Agent and partner networking | JCtrans, WCAworld, DF Alliance, Parnity | Mostly unpublished; Parnity states $999/yr |
| Industry news and directories combined | A directory plus a trade publication — the combination is rarer than it was | Varies |

The actual lesson
Directories close, pivot and get acquired. If a meaningful share of your inbound enquiries came from one listing, its disappearance is a revenue event you did not control and could not have prevented.
Two things follow:
- Spread your listings. Two or three directories cost little — free to $99–$299 a year at this level — and no single one can take your pipeline with it.
- Own one channel outright. Your own website and its search presence is the only channel nobody can retire, reprice or redirect. It is slower to build and it is the only one that is genuinely yours. The method is in the online visibility playbook.
