Production-ready apps with React Server Components
Next.js is the gold standard for production React applications — combining the developer experience of React with the SEO performance of server-side rendering and the scale of static generation. But getting the most out of Next.js requires developers who truly understand its architecture.
MarkRenown's Next.js team builds with the App Router from the ground up — React Server Components, server actions, streaming SSR, and edge-optimized deployments. Every application we ship achieves Lighthouse 90+ and is fully optimized for Google's Core Web Vitals.
Next.js Apps Built
Avg Lighthouse Score
Next.js server-side rendering ensures search engines receive fully rendered HTML — not a JavaScript shell. Every page is crawlable, indexable, and rankable from day one.
Automatic code splitting, image optimization, font optimization, and edge caching mean Next.js apps load faster than almost any other framework — directly improving Core Web Vitals.
SSR for dynamic content, SSG for static pages, ISR for revalidated content, and CSR for interactive components — Next.js lets you choose the right strategy per page.
Next.js API Routes and Server Actions enable full-stack development within a single codebase — reducing infrastructure complexity and deployment overhead significantly.
Full App Router architecture with React Server Components, server actions, streaming, parallel routes, and nested layouts for modern, performant web apps.
Business websites and marketing sites built with Next.js for maximum SEO performance — metadata API, sitemap generation, OG tags, and structured data all built in.
High-performance e-commerce applications with Next.js, Stripe payment integration, dynamic product pages with ISR, and cart/checkout optimization.
Next.js with Sanity, Contentful, Strapi, or WordPress as headless CMS — combining editorial flexibility with Next.js rendering performance.
Migrate your existing React CRA, Gatsby, or legacy application to Next.js App Router — improving performance, SEO, and maintainability without data loss.
Audit and optimize existing Next.js apps — Core Web Vitals fixes, bundle analysis, image optimization, caching strategy, and Lighthouse score improvement.
Define routing structure, data fetching patterns (SSR/SSG/ISR), state management approach, and API architecture before writing a single component.
Build a typed, reusable component system with Storybook documentation — ensuring design consistency and developer efficiency throughout the project.
Agile sprint-based development with weekly demos, TypeScript strict mode enabled, ESLint/Prettier enforced, and code reviews on every pull request.
Next.js Metadata API for dynamic meta tags, generateSitemap for XML sitemaps, JSON-LD structured data, and OG image generation using Next.js ImageResponse.
Lighthouse CI, Core Web Vitals monitoring, bundle size analysis with @next/bundle-analyzer, and end-to-end testing with Playwright before any production deployment.
CI/CD pipeline deployment to Vercel or AWS with environment variable management, error monitoring (Sentry), and real-user performance monitoring (RUM) setup.
Challenge: An EdTech startup had built their platform with Create React App. The SPA architecture meant Google couldn't index course content, resulting in zero organic traffic despite thousands of course pages.
Solution: Full migration to Next.js App Router with ISR for course pages (revalidated every 6 hours), SSG for static marketing pages, and dynamic metadata generation for all 2,400+ course pages.

Next.js is a React framework that adds server-side rendering, static generation, file-based routing, built-in image optimization, and SEO features on top of React. Plain React (via Create React App) produces a single-page application that search engines struggle to index. Next.js generates fully rendered HTML that Google can crawl and rank — making it the right choice for any production website that needs organic search traffic.
The App Router (introduced in Next.js 13, stable in Next.js 13.4+) is a new routing system that uses React Server Components by default. It enables server-side rendering at the component level, not just the page level — meaning only the parts of a page that need dynamic data are fetched on the server, while static parts are cached. This produces faster pages with less JavaScript sent to the browser.
Use Next.js for any production website or web application that needs: SEO visibility, fast page loads, a marketing/content site alongside an app, or a full-stack solution. Use plain React (Vite) only for purely client-side tools (like internal dashboards) where SEO and initial load time are not priorities. For most business projects, Next.js is the correct choice.
SSR (Server-Side Rendering) generates the page HTML on each request — ideal for pages with user-specific or real-time data. SSG (Static Site Generation) builds the HTML at build time — perfect for content that rarely changes (marketing pages, blog posts). ISR (Incremental Static Regeneration) is SSG with automatic revalidation — pages are pre-built but automatically updated in the background at a defined interval. MarkRenown selects the right strategy per page for optimal performance and freshness.
Next.js development costs in India depend on project scope. A Next.js marketing website costs ₹40,000–₹80,000. A Next.js web application with authentication, database, and API routes costs ₹1,00,000–₹3,00,000. A full-scale SaaS or e-commerce platform in Next.js costs ₹2,50,000–₹10,00,000+.
