Next.js & React Development UK
Modern, lightning-fast websites built with the technology trusted by Netflix, TikTok, and GitHub. Bespoke development for businesses that demand performance.
Your website is too important for outdated technology. While most agencies are still building with WordPress, we use Next.js and React – the same technology stack powering Netflix, TikTok, Notion, and GitHub.
The result? Websites that load in under a second, score 95+ on Core Web Vitals (a Google ranking factor), and never need security updates for vulnerable plugins. If you want a fast-loading website for SEO that outperforms your competition, you need modern technology.

What we build with React & Next.js
Frequently asked questions
What is Next.js and why should I care?
Next.js is a React framework used by companies like Netflix, TikTok, Notion, and GitHub. It delivers faster websites, better SEO, and improved security compared to traditional platforms like WordPress. For businesses that take their online presence seriously, it's the modern standard.
Is Next.js better than WordPress?
For most business websites, yes. Next.js delivers faster load times, better Core Web Vitals (Google ranking factor), superior security (no plugin vulnerabilities), and easier scalability. WordPress still has its place for content-heavy sites with non-technical editors, but for performance-focused business sites, Next.js wins.
Will I be able to update my Next.js website myself?
Yes! We build admin interfaces and content management systems tailored to your needs. For simpler sites, we can integrate headless CMS solutions that give you WordPress-like editing without WordPress limitations.
How does Next.js help with SEO?
Next.js provides server-side rendering (search engines see fully-rendered content), automatic image optimisation, built-in Core Web Vitals optimisation, and easy implementation of structured data. These are all ranking factors that help your site perform in search results.
Do you offer React development for web applications?
Yes, we build React-based web applications beyond marketing websites – dashboards, client portals, booking systems, and custom business tools. Our expertise covers the full React ecosystem.
How much does a Next.js website cost?
Our bespoke websites start from £8,000 for Launch Sites. Because we use modern technology, our sites require less ongoing maintenance than WordPress, often saving money in the long term despite similar upfront costs.
