Migrating WordPress and React Projects to Next.js App Router
Reduce hosting costs and elevate your Core Web Vitals scores by migrating WordPress sites or legacy React apps to the Next.js App Router architecture.
For years, WordPress and client-side rendered React single-page applications (SPA) were web standards, but they have begun to lag behind modern requirements. Slow page load speeds now directly hurt SEO rankings and increase ad spends. The Next.js App Router architecture provides a robust alternative that covers all drawbacks of legacy CMS solutions and React applications.
Why You Should Migrate
- High Performance with Minimal Server Costs: Next.js projects can be statically generated (SSG) and served on global CDNs like Vercel or AWS CloudFront, removing database crash risks entirely.
- Outstanding INP and LCP: Thanks to Server Components, only the necessary minimal HTML and CSS are sent to the client. The JavaScript payload is reduced by up to 80%.
- Built-in SEO Support: The dynamic Metadata API enables custom meta tags, Open Graph images, and structured JSON-LD schemas to be generated server-side and delivered ready for crawl bots.
Moving from WordPress to Headless
If your content editors are used to the WordPress backend, you can keep the dashboard and rebuild the frontend with Next.js (Headless WordPress). We fetch data via WP REST API or WPGraphQL during compilation and transform them into static pages. Editors keep using their familiar tools, while visitors get a website that loads in milliseconds.
Getting a 100 PageSpeed score on desktop and mobile is not a dream with Next.js, it is the standard. Faster sites always convert better.
