I will build a headless wordpress website with react or next js


About this gig
Keep the WordPress dashboard you love. Get the Next.js speed your business needs.
Traditional WordPress websites are notoriously slow, bloated, and vulnerable to hacks. If you are an established business or high-traffic blog, you can't afford a slow website.
The solution is Headless WordPress. I will completely decouple your backend from your frontend. Your team will continue to write and publish content in the familiar WordPress admin dashboard, but your users will experience a blazing-fast, custom React/Next.js frontend.
Why Upgrade to Headless?
- Unbeatable Speed: Next.js static generation makes your site load instantly, dramatically improving Core Web Vitals.
- Ultimate Security: Hackers cannot access your database through the frontend because they are completely separated.
- ️ Automated Syncing: (Standard & Premium) I set up custom webhooks. The exact moment you hit "Publish" in WordPress, your Next.js site updates automatically.
What I Provide:
- Custom React/Next.js frontend development.
- WordPress REST API / GraphQL configuration.
- Premium SEO Mapping: (Premium Tier) I map your Yoast or RankMath SEO data directly into the Next.js frontend to ensure perfect meta tags and canonical URL

FAQ
What exactly is "Headless" WordPress?
Normally, WordPress handles both your database (backend) and your website design (frontend). "Headless" means we cut the head (the design) off. You keep WordPress strictly to manage your data and write posts, but we build a brand new, lightning-fast frontend using React/Next.js to display that data
Will I lose my WordPress Admin Dashboard?
Absolutely not! That is the best part of this setup. You and your writers will still log into your standard wp-admin dashboard to write posts, upload images, and manage content just like you always have.
How does the React site update when I publish a new post?
If you choose the Standard or Premium tier, I set up custom Webhooks and Next.js On-Demand ISR. The moment you click "Publish" or "Update" in WordPress, a signal is sent to the frontend to instantly rebuild that specific page in real-time.
Will my current WordPress plugins still work?
Backend plugins (like database optimizers or security tools) will work perfectly. However, frontend plugins (like page builders or contact forms) will not translate directly to React. I will custom-code modern React equivalents for your essential frontend features.
How does going headless affect my Google SEO?
It usually improves it significantly due to the massive speed upgrade! For maximum SEO retention, choose my Premium package, where I custom-map your Yoast or RankMath SEO data directly into the Next.js code.
Where will the new Next.js frontend be hosted?
The best platforms for hosting a Next.js frontend are Vercel or Netlify. They are incredibly fast, highly secure, and often completely free for standard business traffic.
