Hi, I'm Judd Lyon

I'm an independent web consultant. I run Lyon Digital LLC from Atlanta and help marketing leaders at manufacturers get websites that bring in leads.

I've always wanted to know how things work. As a kid in Kaysville, Utah, I took apart my alarm clocks. I was in the first class at my school with the internet, and I've worked on it ever since.

At San Francisco State I built my own PC for a video editing class, couldn't afford Windows and installed Linux. That got me into the command line and programming. I've built websites since 2001.

After a master's at the University of Texas at Austin, I helped start a venture-backed startup out of a carport. Austin's meetup scene, groups like Refresh Austin, taught me to share what I know. I later built and sold SiteCondor, a SaaS SEO audit tool.

An agency project for a packaging machinery company got me hooked on manufacturing: the machines that box, label, fill and cap what you buy at the grocery store.

I spent a year working from Chattanooga, Miami and Atlanta, then settled in Atlanta. When my son Lorenzo was born, I went from someone who makes websites to a consultant. A contractor takes orders. A consultant gives direction.

Atlanta puts me a short drive from manufacturers across the Southeast, from the Carolinas to Tennessee and Alabama.
