Yet automattic is a 7 billion dollar company and wordpress runs almost half the web. Point being that if anything weebly and such lowered the entry bar for small businesses. Of which some are lucky and move upwards, driving demand for devs. I like to call such companies and tools facilitators. The more, the easier for non tech people to enter the digital business world, and the more demand for developers.
