John Dineen "We are chuffed to have been selected for this prestigious award. We've been having a really strong year and to win this would be the icing on the cake. We are now the busiest education web site in Ireland and are racking up significant month-on-month traffic growth in the UK and the States - two key markets for us. Our idea is to give people the insights that the brochures don't cover when choosing a course or college. This really seems to be resonating with people".
