What a freight broker website needs to do
Shippers want a quick quote and a clear contact. Show the modes you handle, regions, how you vet carriers in general terms and a short quote form. Shippers also ask how fast you can quote and how you communicate during a load. Say so in plain terms and keep the quote form short.
Carrier and shipper audiences differ. Separate sections for each keep the page clear and reduce misrouted inquiries. Separate your shipper and carrier paths clearly, so a carrier looking for work does not land in a shipper quote form.
