About Danny Pryor

 

Danny PryorDanny Pryor is an Associated-Press Award-Winning Journalist turned website designer and entrepreneur. His career started in 1988 at KNUU, a CBS affiliate, in Las Vegas, where he became afternoon-drive news anchor when he was only 19 years old.

 

He moved to South Florida in October 1990, going to work at news radio 940 WINZ, another CBS affiliate, only weeks before the outbreak of Gulf War I. By the time he was 23, he had won the AP Award for Best Individual Achievement, Large Market Florida, among the youngest people to ever earn such recognition.

 

In 2000, while working at a South Florida magazine, he decided he wanted to lay out his own news articles, rather than leave the task to someone who was unfamiliar with the particulars of the news items being presented. With that, he became familiar with Adobe Photoshop, Pagemaker and Corel Draw. His new-found skills quickly led him to updating the publication's tiny website, which had been fairly ignored for nearly a year. As a result, Danny learned Netscape Composer and, later, Dreamweaver 3.0.

 

In January 2001, when the magazine went out of business, he partnered with a former broadcasting colleague, Chris Leonard of Westwood One to start Rodan Media Group.

 

The first incarnations of Rodan Media did not fare well, but in 2006, with his introduction to domain-industry maves Rick Schwartz and Howard Neu, of T.R.A.F.F.I.C., Danny's interest in online entrepreneurialism was rekindled.

 

Rodan Media Group was put online once again, in 2007, and finally reincorporated in 2009. Today, the company is the developer for a number of domain investment project and networks, including the Fidelity Funding Network. Rodan Media is also a provider of content and individual website development to a number of small businesses across the East Coast of the United States.
