- Survey: 53% of US entrepreneurs use AI website builders as freelance web dev gigs fall
A Bluehost-commissioned survey of 201 US entrepreneurs found that 53% had adopted AI website builders instead of hiring professional developers, with respondents reporting average savings of about $850 and 32 working hours. Freelancer.com data cited alongside the survey shows website design postings fell 59% between Q2 2024 and Q3 2026, with PHP down 59%, WordPress down 58% and HTML down 55%; graphic design fell 43% while data entry rose 16%. Satisfaction was high — 72% strongly approved and 97% were at least moderately satisfied — but only 9% published the AI output unedited, and just 50% were willing to tell customers their site was AI-generated. The survey sample is small, carrying roughly 6.9 percentage points of uncertainty at 95% confidence, and postings from a single marketplace do not prove AI caused the decline.
