Sure, but if you're a web developer, hell even if you're a senior web developer, the answer is almost always still "I applied to a bunch of places because I can expect more than half of them not to even give me the courtesy of an email, you’re not special, and I like being able to afford paying for food" unless you're applying to somewhere like NASA or something. I was asked this question at my first dev job I ended up getting out of school, and I ended up stumbling through it and said something like it was a good fit because of location and it seemed interesting etc.
