Our Origins
Interlink Advertising was founded in 1996, initially providing link building services to early adopters of small online businesses. We helped these pioneers leverage the internet's level playing field to compete with established brick and mortar corporations.
That same year, our founder Nick Cookson built LinkCentre.com, a simple internet directory with search functionality that rapidly expanded to serve users in over 180 countries.
Navigating the Evolving Web
Throughout our history, LinkCentre.com has adapted to remain relevant despite the changing digital landscape. We've witnessed the rise and fall of search and directory giants such as Yahoo, Altavista, WebCrawler, and Lycos as Google rose to prominence alongside the emergence of video and social media.
During this evolution, we established notable partnerships. LinkCentre.com briefly provided Lycos UK with directory results and hosting through our company Happily Hosted. We also received invitations from Google to explore integrating new ad serving technologies into third-party websites.
Throughout these industry shifts, we've remained dedicated to our core mission: offering unrestricted access to websites and helping people share the web.
Our Growth & Current Operations
In 2004, we formally incorporated as Interlink Advertising Limited, expanding our service offerings beyond our original directory.
Today, LinkCentre.com continues to thrive, growing at a rate of over 13,000 new user accounts each month (as reported on X.com, February 2025). The platform enables individuals and businesses to promote their services online, reaching wider audiences and connecting with like-minded communities.
Users can create profile pages containing website details, contact information, and lists of submitted websites. Visitors can search for websites by location or category and leave reviews with up to 5-star ratings.
