With regard to B, at least in the DC area it is all dried up and agencies are climbing the value chain in one or both directions:
- As a communications/marketing/PR agency who provides the website as a component of a larger campaign. Many of these folks are already using platforms like Wix, Squarespace, etc., or Wordpress with purchased templates.
- Doing more complex site development that requires a lot of IA work and institutional change management. For example: migrating ancient federal HTML websites (yes some still exist) to Drupal.
