Web Design Business with Josh Hall

The landscape of website builders has evolved so much since I got started in 2010 and you know what else has evolved? Web designers.

As a web designer, I’m sure you’ve had plenty of people ask “is AI going to take your job?”

Well, my position is firmly NO.

But one adjacent part of the industry I was curious/cautious about is copywriting. After all, I’m primarily using AI for copywriting and messaging help these days.

To hear how copywriters are surviving, even thriving in an AI world, here’s copywriter for web designers Nikki Thompson ...

To kick off the New Year, I wanted to share this convo I had recently for my email/DNS partner specialist Amr Selim which we recorded for his podcast where we do a recap of my journey from cabinet maker/drummer to designer/agency owner to course creator/community builder.

We also get into how different the industry of web design is today in 2026 compared to when I got started in 2010. But also, how many timeless practices ...

I’m in reflection mode right now and as we get ready for the New Year, I’m been thinking a lot about these 5 timeless lessons from high-profile guests on my podcast that have really helped me over the last few years.

As a web designer, you’ve probably considered looking into additional revenue streams, but have you ever considered sponsorships?

If not, you’ll want to hear this conversation I had with sponsorship coach and author of the new book “Sponsor Magnet” Justin Moore.

While this is mostly a chance for him to coach me live on my sponsorship strategies, it applies to web designers even with small client-based audiences an...
