About Matthew Woodard

Who is Matthew Woodard?

Father. Entrepreneur. Internet Ninja.

I’m a dad to five amazing kids and an entrepreneur at heart. I fell in love with the computer early in my life and have been passionately leveraging it and the internet to make a living.

For close to 20 years, I have rode the freelance roller coaster and learned so much when it comes to business online. Working with top Fortune500 companies, and some of the biggest names in internet marketing, has gained me a wealth of knowledge when it comes to websites and how they become successful.

This knowledge and these secrets are something I want to share and use to help others like yourself achieve the success that I have. I welcome you, no matter what stage you are in, to reach out to me about your project and learn how I can help make a big difference in your journey online. Starting with hiring the right freelance web designer.

What inspired you to start freelancing?

“I have always been entrepreneurial at heart, which made it very hard for me to work for 1 specific company. I love the variety of challenges freelancing brings. Early in life I also realized that true financial freedom comes with working for yourself and not others.”

Why did you get into web design?

“The desire to blend art and technology. Witnessing the transformation a well-crafted website can bring to a business was my call to action. That, and my love for solving problems.”

What do you do for fun outside of work?

“I love fishing! Hiking and camping with the family are my go to outdoor activities when I am not glued to the computer thinking of new business ideas.”

Who is your favorite tech icon and why?

“Elon Musk for sure. His vision for design and innovation is reshaping our world. I’d love to pick his brain over a steak dinner.”

What’s a project you’re most proud of and why?

“It’s tough to pick just one, but working with Alex Charfen and Mike Dillard were probably the highlights of my career so far. Working along side these two literally changed my life. The amount of knowledge gained and the work I was a part of has had a lasting toll on who I am today, and the work I continue to do.”

What’s one piece of advice you’d give to someone starting in web design?

“Never stop learning. Web design is an art that’s constantly evolving, and staying curious is key. Oh, and always back up your work. Trust me on that one.”

Tell me an interesting fact about yourself.

“I am left handed, but I only write with my left hand, I do everything else right handed.”
