Hey! My name's Scott Mathson, I'm a maker. Marketer. SEO. Full-stack Developer. Tech Enthusiast. Entrepreneur.

A musician, songwriter, and fly fisherman. Small business owner, content creator—a maker!

I've been working on the web and in software (tech industry) for quite some time now. I've been focusing on optimizing, growing, developing, marketing, and managing websites, programs, and products.

I first started publishing to the web back in 2007 with WordPress. Ever since, I've been exploring new technologies, developing new skills, and with a keen attention to detail, optimizing every web property, campaign, and launch that I work on.

I've had a unique journey, experiencing and pursuing a lot already - I love it! I'm a technical-creative person with breadth and depth in a variety of areas professionally - marketing, full-stack development, content, growth, product, and far beyond.

I happily call Missoula, MT home with my wife and our pets. This is my personal website and blog, a collection of personal musings, guitar lessons, updates on my 1971 F-250 restoration project, and other digital journaling. I've owned/operated a small consulting studio since 2011 (open to new clients), and enjoy running side projects and products under my holding company.

Learn about my work experience and background. Thanks for visiting my corner of the web!

A couple projects and products of mine:

Plink makes smart podcast links that detects user-agents and deep link listeners to the right apps for their device. Trusted and used by customers like CBS Sports, Bloomberg, Channel 4, McKinsey & Co., SAP, UNICEF, and thousands of other podcasters, networks, and media companies. Plink is processing 8.2M monthly requests (as of 05/2021).

Scott Mathson Music is the music section of my site where I create guitar lessons, chord charts, and covers of songs. Music has always been so important to me. I'm often daydreaming about re-kindling live performances — dusting off my music equipment and taking the stage at open mic's or playing at farmer's markets. I still do write songs, it is the best form of personal and emotional expression. Check out music.scottmathson.com for more.

Makerviews exists to share, inspire, and give access to a wide variety of makers and their chosen crafts. Rooted in a deep love and appreciation of handmade, quality goods, I'm setting out to partner and collaborate with artisans and craftspeople, highlighting these makers through in-depth articles. Check out Makerviews!
