Who knows what Shakespeare thought? He left no record of his personal thoughts.
He put the witches in the story because they were in his source. And of course stories with witches in them (The Witch of Edmonton, The Witch) were popular at the time. Maybe the king's interest in them helped their popularity.
Although it would appear that Macbeth may not have been as successful a play as all that. Thomas Middleton was commissioned to tart the play up with some highly commercial song-and-dance numbers which still appear, somewhat incongruously in the script.
