It was easier before...when not that many people were doing it. Nowadays, a highschool kid with some HTML knowledge can call himself a freelance web designer, charge a few bucks less and there goes your customers.
If you want to be a web designer, there are a couple options, either be really really good so that you can ask for a few bucks more than the freelance guy, or be like the freelance guy and just go for quantity rather than quality. There'll always be people going for affordability rather than the overall "wow"ness.
Another way is to increase add-on value to your work. Instead of just design, offer development (ie. programming/applications) and site content (ie. content creation, SEO, etc.). All these will broaden your choices in the long run.
