With its headquarters based out of Monroe, Louisiana, CenturyLink provides Internet and phone services to customers in 36 different states. CenturyLink is the 3rd largest telecommunications business in the United States, providing telecommunication services to the Government, businesses, and residents throughout the country. CenturyLink was founded in 1930 when William Clarke and his wife, Marie Williams bought Oak Ridge Telephone Company. In 1968, Clarke incorporated the company under the name Central Telephone and Electronics. Over several decades, they had acquired multiple regional providers and expanded their network. They became known as CenturyLink in 2009 and have continued to provide customers with reliable DSL service.
Shortly after incorporation in 1968, CenturyLink, initially known as Oak Ridge Telephone Company, was renamed Century Telephone Enterprises Inc. in 1971.
After acquiring Embarq in 2008 for $11.6 billion, CenturyTel changed its name to CenturyLink.
In 2010 CenturyLink acquired Qwest essentially paving the way for CenturyLink to become the 3rd largest telecommunications company in the United States.
