6. AI-Enhanced Web Design
“Website design? Isn’t that complicated?”
Not anymore. AI web design tools have transformed this technical field into an accessible side hustle.
Take my friend Miguel. A high school teacher with zero coding experience, he now builds websites on weekends using Bubble and Lovable. His clients? Local businesses who pay $1,200-2,000 per site. His time investment? About 10 hours per project.
The demand is enormous. Every business needs a website, but few want to pay agency prices.
Your path to AI web design success:
- Start with no-code platforms: Bubble, Wix, or Webflow with AI integrations
- Use AI for initial designs: Tools like Lovable can generate entire layouts based on simple prompts
- Offer rapid turnaround: Promise 7-day delivery for a premium price
- Bundle with maintenance: Offer monthly care plans for recurring revenue
- Specialize by industry: Become the go-to designer for restaurants, real estate, or fitness professionals
The competitive advantage? Speed. AI allows you to deliver in days what traditionally took weeks.
Could you be the web design hero local businesses are searching for?
