In spring 2003, together with the NetCentrum Company we launched an operation of a new and, in some regards, revolutionary company database. Due to the searching range and quality of precise data, the database is also used by some other Czech portals. At present it is the most used company database in the CR – more than 230 000 people a moth (NetMonitor, September 2007) search here, mostly managers and businesspeople.
Centrum.cz is among the youngest Czech portals (launched in 1999). Today it is the 2nd most visited place on the Czech Internet, with 2.9 million of real users per month and 676 thousand users per day (Netmonitor, September 2007). The portal provides about 60 services ranging from traditional ones such as e-mail and search to relative novelties such as Photoalbum or the entertainment web Showbizz.cz. Centrum.cz puts en emphasis on its own technology and content because an important part of the portal is its own publishing house. Among the most successful titles are online daily Aktuálně.cz. NetCentrum, Ltd. Which runs Centrum.cz experiences a significant growth each year.
Search is one of the portal’s pillars. Centrum.cz uses its own search technology called Morfeo which can work very well with Czech (among those participating on the service development was also the Institute for the Czech Language).
