You probably dont make content sites. The reason PHP is still relevant today is because no other language has CMSes as good as those from PHP. And i dont mean WP or Drupal.
Craft, Kirby, Twill, October, Grav, Statamic, Bolt, Processwire…
All of those projects have big active ecosystems around them and are used for serious projects. Most other languages dont have a single CMS. There is no CMS in Go or Elixir. Javascript have some but they are super immature and mostly hype. Python has some super ugly ones based around Django.
Now people may look down on these PHP cmses but many web projects like ecommerce grow as extensions of CMS. And most of these CMSes are suited to this because they are nice web framework with customizable admin area. So it often doesnt make sense not use PHP.
