I'm not gonna lie…I needed this chat. In an era where there's so much emphasis on growth plans (like SEO, CRO, Email Marketing, Ads, Social, etc), it's easy to second-guess yourself or just abandon web design completely if you prefer to just build awesome websites and support that work.Well good news, just offering high-converting web design + hosting and maintenance plans is still a VERY VIABLE model in 2026 and beyond.Jake Kramer of Artillery Media (along with many members in my community Web Designer Pro) are proof.Jake and his partner John, along with their lean team, are currently hosting and maintaining 500+ websites with their plan, using the same toolstack I've been using since 2015. Divi website builder + SiteGround hosting. We get into how they're running and managing things practically in this one so if you're interested in simply designing sites and supporting clients month to month but not becoming a full stack digital marketing agency, this one's for you.Note: I don't disparage anyone wanting to get into growth plans or digital marketing, and that is a faster path to revenue growth but if you're more in the “slow and steady” camp, and you're ok with delayed gratification, website design + hosting and maintenance plans are still a great way to go.Head to the show notes to get all links and resources we mentioned, along with a full transcription of this episode at joshhall.co/419

Building a web design business has it's challenges. Building it on the side while working a 9-5 has an added set of complexities and challenges.

Dr. Beckett and Rich Klein discuss Topps' “75 Greatest Cards” list finalized over a Zoom call with industry and hobby voices (including Nat Turner, writer Tim Kurkjian, collector Evan Longoria, historian John Thorn, Fanatics CEO Mike Mahan, and others). Josh Hall writes in criticizing the list for recognizing Barry Bonds and for placing Paul Skenes' card between legends like Jackie Robinson and Nolan Ryan in the top ten. Beckett explains why modern players must be represented, and they compare the process to Mike Payne's 1997 “300 Greatest Baseball Cards” book, and argues Skenes merits inclusion due to hobby relevance and sales, while noting career outcomes are uncertain. They cover how the top 10 was balloted and tabulated, Beckett's push for more Ohtani and Judge, and the importance of redemption “hits” that won't disappoint collectors. They debate including the Aurelio Rodriguez Bat Boy error card, Rich shares an anecdote about a 2006 Topps Heritage wrong-photo card signed “that's not me,” and critiques design choices that make names/numbers hard to read. The conversation also touches on buybacks, the hobby's shift toward hits over rediscovered commons, and how grading/pop reports influence list perception (including his view that a Topps Griffey “rookie” shouldn't outrank the iconic 1989 Upper Deck). Beckett addresses the tension between player popularity and performance, defends Bonds as having broken rules rather than committing “crimes against humanity,” and says he didn't rank Bonds in his own top 10, while noting Nolan Ryan's popularity despite a less-stellar win–loss record. They praise Topps/Fanatics' marketing savvy and both credit friend and longtime Topps' Clay Luraschi as a key behind-the-scenes contributor to the broader list that was narrowed down.   01:57 Why Modern Stars Belong 02:41 Inside the Voting and Making Redemption Cards Exciting 06:55 Buybacks vs. “Hits” in the Modern Hobby 07:41 Nat Turner/Grading/Pop Reports Shaping the Rankings 10:42 Barry Bonds Debate: Popularity vs Performance

The landscape of website builders has evolved so much since I got started in 2010 and you know what else has evolved? Web designers. Building high-converting, well-designed professional websites is still at the core of most web designer studios and agencies but the landscape is evolving now to where, in my experience, clients are relying on web designers to help make sense of the scattered online world and to help them drive traffic, leads and customers to their website.This means an identity shift for many web designers, who are now viewed as more of webmasters or web consultants/strategists. That's exactly what we dive into in this chat I had with Mark Szymanksi. This convo was recorded for his show Fueled by Progress but we covered so much important ground, I wanted you to hear it as well.Apart from the landscape of website builders changing, we get into:How web designer identities change as we progressWhere AI is in web design now in 2026The changes in the DIY marketMy identity shifts from designer, to course creator, to community builder and coachRunning an online business around family (as Mark is expecting his first kiddo soon)And more.Head to the show notes to get all links and resources we mentioned, along with a full transcription of this episode at joshhall.co/416

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 and followings.There is so much opportunity for sponsorships at all levels with brands, local businesses and even referral partners that you might not be thinking about as a web designer. So, instead of just sitting on gold…let's dig some up in the form of sponsorships with Justin!Side note: as a web designer, I must say, chef's kiss to the sponsormagnet.com site!

Jay Clouse is best known for two things:Being the founder of Creator Science, and being one of the most prominent thought-leaders in the content creator spaceBeing the first 4x guest on the Web Design Business PodcastJay and I connected early in his journey into the world of courses, coaching, podcasting, memberships and content creation and over the last 5 years, I've seen him excel in all areas.So much so, that I'm a paying member of his community “The Lab” where I keep tabs on all things socials, content creation, podcasting, memberships and more.But a big shift happened for Jay last year when he and his wife had their first little cuddly Clouse. So for this chat, we focus on that – specifically what he's learned in growing and maintaining his business with harsher time and bandwidth constraints as a new parent.Enjoy!

Design and building websites…that's the fun part.Managing the project, collecting content, onboarding, handling revisions and feedback…typically, not so much.Which is why, if you can automate as much of the repeatable tasks and make a system and process for the “unfun” parts of a web design project, it'll make your life much easier and more profitable.That's what we're diving into this one with automation and systems specialist (and fellow 17hats user) Kristen Lettini.We get into:What automations you're missing (and why to add them NOW)The GOLD of auto-remindersUsing a CRM like 17hats to automate as much as possibleMy “before and after” automation momentWhy improving systems is THE KEY to sustainabilityGet my quote, contract & invoice templates (for free) with a 7-day trial of 17hats, the CRM I've been using for over 10 years!

Being an entrepreneur is challenging. Being a parent-entrepreneur is even more challenging. Being a special needs parent entrepreneur…it's tough to put into words. But one thing's for sure, the freedom of schedule and flexible availability, to be able to care for a special needs kiddo as a web designer is UNMATCHED and well worth all the challenges.We're diving into all of that and more in this special group chat that I had with Marc Hyde, Lisa Dorian and Ed Gomes. All members of Web Designer Pro who have something in common, being a web designer and entrepreneur with one or more special needs children we care for.We get into:Future planning for special care after retirementHow goals and vision changes after having a child with special needsHow to structure your schedule and calls around a complex scheduleHow we stay balanced during hard times (emergencies, surgeries, etc)The invaluable need for a supportive community of others who are in similar situationsAnd don't worry, you don't need to have a special needs kiddo to get a lot out of this convo because everything we talk about is applicable to you as an entrepreneur parent.Loving the Web Design Business podcast?
