Well, I have made money as a web designer. I have helped people set up a blog, forum, business website, as well as online stores. I have not only designed the entire website for clients but also some parts such as setting up a shop page or a subscription page. Even though there are tools for making websites easily, many people still need professional help. So, there's still a chance for website designers and developers to make money. However, there's a lot of competition, especially on freelance marketplace.
