Client Spotlight
Fastnet was approached during 2008 by Alison Steed & Liz King, with a view to building a financial website aimed at women. Since then, they have mastered not only Joomla but also K2 - the powerful content component from JoomlaWorks.
Alison said: "We love the simplicity of Joomla, how we are in total control and the speed of changing the whole website. Phil & the Fastnet team have helped us overcome our doubts of ever running our own websites".
Liz added: "Adding to this the wonderful power of K2 just makes the whole user experience 10 fold better and makes the site sparkle".
Both Alison & Liz are the co-founders and directors of www.MyMoneyDiva.com, www.TriSpiritEvents.com and www.laramedia.co.uk - all 3 sites using Joomla! with 2 utilising the K2 content component.
