Nov, 2009 : DomainAdvertising.com Appoints Dan Warner as CEO

📅 November 25, 2009 - Dan Warner brings 12+ years of experience in internet strategy, marketing and operations.

DomainAdvertising.com, a domain media business, today announced the appointment of Dan Warner as Chief Executive Officer (CEO). The company states that Warner brings 12+ years of experience in internet strategy, marketing and operations. Warner was previously the Chief Strategy Officer and Chief Operation Officer of Dark Blue Sea, an Australian public company, which owns and markets Fabulous.com.

"Dan Warner was the Board's first choice for this position. He is the perfect leader for DomainAdvertising.com", said Anoop Polavaram from the Ashmore Group, "His extensive experience and recognized leadership within the domain industry will be invaluable to the business. He is undoubtedly one of the most influential people in the industry."

"I was looking for a challenge where I could manage growth and innovation in the Internet industry. This was difficult to find in a market which has recently focused on reducing head counts, research and infrastructure. Both Directi and Ashmore have a great reputation and substantial resources. When I was approached by them, I realized the potential of this business. I am thrilled about the opportunity," said Dan Warner. "We will be doing the exact opposite of most domain companies. Significant capital, human resources and infrastructure will be used to accelerate internet advertising innovation and design. We expect that many of the other players in the industry will look like they are standing still or going backwards in comparison to our scheduled advancements."

The company avers that Warner has already assumed his role as CEO and is planning to fully launch the DomainAdvertising.com business by Jan 2010. Warner leads an initial dedicated team of over 30 people with access to over 500 people as required within the Directi group. Under Warner's leadership, DomainAdvertising.com will focus on advancements in research, innovation and optimization to benefit professional domain owners.
