The bar for time tracking/project management and website construction applications is very high. Many are launched but most fall into obscurity. Why would I want to buy a rushed out the door project management app when I can use basecamp?
Web products is not really a homogeneous category either and spans everything from social networks to specialized applications for industry.

Many of the competitors that have launched and have fallen into obscurity from your point of view are actually generating healthy profits from a few thousand customers in an industry you don't know. There are huge opportunities for brilliant web developers to release a first product, or version of a product, in an obscure market and use the profits to build something amazing with wider appeal.
