                  DAG Media, Inc. Announces New Operating Plan;
             Declares $0.10 per Share Quarterly Dividend During 2005

NEW YORK, January 7, 2005 /PRNewswire/ -- DAG Media Inc. (Nasdaq: DAGM - news)
today announced the proposed sale of its classified directories business,
consisting of the Jewish Israeli Yellow Pages and the Master or Kosher Guide.
The sale would include applicable trademarks, tradenames and other intellectual
property. To assist it in the sale of its directories business DAG Media has
retained Dragonfly Capital Partners LLC as its exclusive financial advisor.

DAG Media decided to seek a buyer for its directories business because the
complexity, scale and probable margins of this business makes the costs of
compliance with new regulatory requirements for public companies, under Sarbanes
Oxley and other government strictures, prohibitive. While seeking to sell its
classified directories business DAG Media will seek to acquire a new potentially
larger and more profitable business, more suitable for operation in a publicly
traded company. DAG believes that sale of its directories business and
acquisition of a new business more suitable for operation in a public company is
the best way to enhance shareholder value and optimize asset growth.

DAG Media also announced that it would pay a $0.10 per share dividend to
shareholders of record on March 21, June 20, September 20 and December 20, 2005
with pay dates on April 5, July 5, October 5, 2005 and January 5, 2006.
