Welcome to Bristol Link, your guide to the City of Bristol. Our mission is to connect people and businesses.
You’ll discover the best restaurants, hotels, and unique attractions that make our city a great place to live, work, and play. Whether you’re a resident or a visitor, we invite you to explore and connect with everything Bristol offers.
We also promote local businesses and encourage business-to-business relationships in Bristol. If you’re looking for a specific type of business start by searching our online directory to find local organisations, services, and trades in Bristol and the surrounding areas.
Bristol Link was established in October 2000 as a community-led project, so please contact us if you have any suggestions or would like to contribute in some way. We look forward to hearing from you.
The B Team (due to our consumption of local Cider)
Meet the B Team, the people who work on this website and live locally. The B stands for Bristol by the way! 😉
Steve – The Boss
Steve started Bristol Link in 1999. Yeah, a long time ago. Originally offering web design services, he transitioned into web hosting and then digital marketing, specifically Search Engine Optimisation (SEO). He still provides these services to local businesses. However, he also manages a small portfolio of websites including Bristol-Link.co.uk
Steve is involved in all aspects of the business from making the tea to website development and various boring administration tasks.
Ian – Marketing
Ian is our digital marketing guru. When he’s not scrolling (sorry, I meant “posting” on Social Media) or promoting this website by other means, he enjoys tidying the office or popping down to the shops for the team’s lunchtime grub – he will look for any excuse to prevent himself from doing real work.
We call Ian “Mr Doom-scroller”, for obvious reasons.
Jake – Editor
Jake is our editing chief and okayish photographer. He does his best behind the camera lens, let’s leave it there. Thankfully his editing skills are somewhat better. You might see Ian around Bristol taking photos for his next article. You’re welcome to interrupt him but please don’t encourage his flippant attitude towards office work – he needs to get back to the office and finish that article.
Helga – Research and Office Manager
Helga is in charge of this, that, and the other, which includes digital strategy, admin, and pushing the office chaps around. We would be lost without her management skills and strict approach to professionalism. If there’s a problem Helga will either fix it herself or tell one of us chaps to fix it in a tone of voice that makes us spring into action immediately.
Looking forward …
Bristol Link will continue to support local businesses within the Greater Bristol area and focus on delivering the best online resource for the city’s residents and visitors.
We will continue to offer low-cost opportunities for local businesses to get involved and help them grow online and offline.
