When should I choose Next.js over WordPress?

Choose Next.js when performance is a top priority and your business needs are beyond what WordPress can efficiently deliver — extremely fast page loads, complex interactive features, headless architecture, or the ability to scale to high traffic volumes. For straightforward business websites and content-managed sites, WordPress is often the more practical and cost-effective choice. I work with both and will recommend the right solution for your project.

How much does Next.js development cost?

Next.js projects typically start at $3,000 and scale based on complexity. A marketing website with headless CMS integration is on the lower end. A full-stack web application with authentication, databases, and complex business logic is on the higher end. I provide detailed custom quotes.

Can I still update content on a Next.js website without a developer?

Yes. I integrate headless CMS platforms like Sanity or Contentful that give you a user-friendly editing interface. You can update text, images, and pages without touching any code.

Is Next.js good for SEO?

Excellent for SEO. Next.js supports server-side rendering and static generation, both of which deliver fully-rendered HTML that search engines can easily crawl and index. Combined with proper meta tag management, structured data, and optimized Core Web Vitals, Next.js sites can rank just as well — or better — than traditional CMS-built sites.

Let's Discuss Your Next.js Project →

What You Get

Server-Side Rendering for SEO

Traditional React applications render content in the browser — which means search engine crawlers often see an empty page. Next.js renders pages on the server before sending them to the browser, delivering fully formed HTML that Google can crawl, index, and rank immediately.

Static Site Generation for Maximum Speed

For pages that don't change frequently — service pages, about pages, blog posts — Next.js generates static HTML at build time. These pages load near-instantly because there's no server processing involved. Just pre-built HTML delivered at CDN speed.

Headless CMS Integration

I connect Next.js to content management platforms like Sanity, Strapi, Contentful, or even WordPress running in headless mode. You get a blazing-fast frontend powered by Next.js with an easy-to-use content editing backend — the best of both performance and usability.

Built-In API Routes for Full-Stack Capability

Next.js includes API routes, allowing me to build complete full-stack applications without a separate backend server. Form submissions, database operations, authentication, payment processing, and third-party integrations — all handled within the same codebase.

Automatic Image Optimization

Next.js automatically serves images in the optimal format and size for each visitor's device and viewport, dramatically improving load times and Core Web Vitals scores without requiring manual image processing.
