Services · Headless CMS & Next.js

Headless CMS and Next.js websites that stay fast as they grow

A headless setup separates the content from the website. Editors work in a CMS built for writing; the site is a Next.js front end built for speed and search. We build both sides and connect them, including multilingual content for international teams.

Is this you?

  • Your site is slow and every plugin or theme update makes it slower.
  • You publish in several languages and keeping the versions in step is a manual job.
  • Your developers want a modern stack, but your editors still need a simple way to publish.

What's included

Next.js front end

Server-rendered and static pages, chosen per page for speed and search, written in TypeScript with reusable components.

Headless CMS setup

Content models that match how your team publishes, in ButterCMS, Sanity or another headless CMS, with previews before anything goes live.

Multilingual content

One content structure serving several languages, with the right URLs and tags so each version can rank.

Migration from your current CMS

Content moved across, every old URL redirected and indexing checked after launch. Website Migrations

FAQ

Headless & Next.js FAQ

WordPress suits most content sites and is simpler to run. Headless suits sites that need top speed, several languages or content shared with an app. We'll recommend one in the scope and explain why.
