It's still a very unfamiliar thing to a lot of people so they don't feel comfortable to approach a company.
I couldn't tell you how many times someone answered "Really? That's great, I have been looking for one recently" when I said I design websites.

I agree with you here, that people don't like to ask as they can see some web designers as being rip offs (well that's my view as I look at what they produce and know who builds from a box and charges a lot and who doesn't and charges something reasonable)
Web design is a funny business to be in, if you can get the business and have a steady stream of clients it works but it's when it dries up the problems come about
