Next.js development company
Fast, indexable, maintainable. It is what we build our own site on.
We design and engineer Next.js 16 applications on the App Router: marketing sites that pass Core Web Vitals on a mid-range Android phone, headless storefronts, and SaaS dashboards built on React Server Components. Delivered from Noida for clients in the US, Australia and New Zealand, and handed over with the deployment pipeline documented.
What is Next.js, and when is it the right choice?
Next.js is a React framework that renders on the server, ships less JavaScript to the browser, and hands search engines and AI crawlers complete HTML on the first request. Choose it when the site has to be found, has to load in under two and a half seconds on a mid-range phone, and still has to behave like an application once it has loaded. Choose plain React when you are building a tool behind a login that nobody needs to discover on Google.
Version 16 is built around the App Router and React Server Components. Most components run only on the server, so data-fetching code, API keys and heavy libraries never reach the browser. What arrives is HTML plus the small amount of JavaScript the interactive parts genuinely need. Each route decides for itself whether it is generated at build time, revalidated on a schedule, or streamed as the data lands.
Two of those properties have a direct effect on money. Indexing: a server-rendered page is complete on the first crawl, with title, canonical and structured data in the source rather than injected later by a script that a crawler may or may not run. Hosting: pre-generated pages are cheap to serve from a CDN, so a campaign spike does not need an expensive origin server idling all year waiting for it.
We have built on Next.js since version 9, and most months one of us is moving a WordPress, Create-React-App or Pages-Router codebase onto it. This website runs on it. The code panel above is the actual route that rendered this page, and the redirect work that makes those migrations safe is the part clients underestimate.
What we build with Next.js
Marketing and corporate sites
Statically generated, schema-complete, sub-two-second LCP. Editors publish through a headless CMS instead of raising a ticket and waiting three days.
Explore →Headless storefronts
Shopify Hydrogen, Medusa or a commerce API behind a Next.js front-end, with product pages revalidated the moment price or stock changes.
Explore →SaaS dashboards and portals
Server Components, streaming, role-based access with Auth.js or Clerk, and multi-tenant data on Prisma with PostgreSQL.
AI-facing interfaces
Chat, retrieval and agent UIs on the Vercel AI SDK, streaming tokens to the browser without blocking the rest of the page.
Explore →Migration to Next.js
From WordPress, Gatsby, Create-React-App or the Pages Router, with a redirect map built before anything is switched over.
Explore →Performance and maintenance
Core Web Vitals rescue, version upgrades, dependency and security patching on a monthly retainer with a named engineer.

Next.js compared with the alternatives
Next.js vs plain React with Vite
React is a UI library. Next.js is the framework around it that settles routing, server rendering, image and font handling and deployment. For an internal tool behind a login, Vite and React are simpler and cheaper to run, and we will tell you that rather than upsell. For anything that has to be found, Next.js removes about a month of plumbing.
Next.js vs WordPress
WordPress wins when non-technical editors need to assemble new page layouts themselves every week and the site is mostly content. Next.js wins when performance, custom interfaces or integrations matter more than layout freedom. The middle path, WordPress as a headless editor with a Next.js front-end, is one we ship several times a year.
Next.js vs Astro
Astro ships less JavaScript for content sites and is genuinely faster for documentation or publishing with little interactivity. We use it where it fits. The moment you need authenticated views, a dashboard or React state shared across routes, Next.js is the one that will not need replacing in year two.
Next.js, answered
Next.js or React, which do we actually need?
React on its own is a UI library: you assemble routing, rendering, bundling and SEO yourself, and maintain those choices forever. Next.js has made them for you. If the site must rank, load quickly on mobile or be read by AI crawlers, use Next.js. If it is an internal tool behind a login, React with Vite is lighter and cheaper.
How much does a Next.js website cost?
A marketing site with a headless CMS typically lands between $6,000 and $18,000. Storefronts and SaaS builds run $20,000 to $80,000 depending on integrations and how many user roles exist. A dedicated Next.js engineer is $22/hour or $2,880/month. You get a range in our first written reply, before any call.
Can you migrate our WordPress site to Next.js without losing rankings?
Yes, and the redirect map is most of the job. We inventory every live URL, keep or 301 each one, replicate titles, canonicals and structured data, then compare Search Console impressions on both sides of the cut-over. Content stays editable, usually in a headless CMS, sometimes in WordPress itself.
Do you use the App Router or the Pages Router?
App Router with React Server Components for all new work. We still maintain Pages Router codebases and upgrade them route by route. Rewriting a working application in one release is how teams lose a quarter and gain nothing a customer can see.
Where do you host Next.js applications?
Vercel by default, because it is the shortest path to production and matches the framework's caching model exactly. Where cost or data residency rules it out, we run the same application in Docker on AWS, Hetzner or your own infrastructure, with the caching layer configured by hand and documented.
Can we hire your Next.js developers directly?
Yes. Dedicated Next.js engineers are $22/hour or $2,880/month with a 15-day trial and profiles within 48 hours. You run the sprint. We handle contracts, cover and replacement.
Building on Next.js? Let's talk.
Twenty minutes with an engineer. If Next.js is the wrong tool for what you are describing, we will tell you what we would use instead and why.
