True. But you're competing with Foursquare and GoDaddy websites for $ 1 / month. I don't recommend people use those services but in the end that's what you're competing with. Compare that to setting up a website with Drupal.

So you're either severely constrained by a cookie cutter CMS, or completely overwhelmed by a more flexible platform like Drupal. Ultimately I'm not hearing anything convincing about why web development has become obsolete.
