Next.js Website Design & Development in Nepal | Next JS Fast React Websites
Quick answer
WebApp Nepal builds Next.js websites that load fast, render on the server for SEO, and connect to a headless CMS or your own API. It suits businesses that want top performance and search visibility.
Speed is not a feature. It is the first impression. A potential customer in Kathmandu opens your website on their phone while their Ncell 4G connection fluctuates between two and four bars. If your website loads in under two seconds, they are reading. If it takes five seconds, more than half of them have already pressed back and opened a competitor's site instead. By the time your page finishes loading, you have already lost the conversation.
This is not a hypothetical. Google's research shows that a one-second improvement in page load time improves mobile conversion rates by up to 27%. Every second of delay costs real business. The websites that load fastest in Google Search are increasingly the websites that rank highest - because Google uses Core Web Vitals, which measure real-world loading performance, as a direct ranking factor. Speed is no longer just a user experience concern. It is an SEO signal, a conversion factor, and a competitive advantage.
Next.js is the technology that makes this level of performance achievable - not through optimization tricks applied to a slow foundation, but through a fundamentally faster architecture where pages are pre-built and delivered instantly rather than generated fresh on every visit. WebApp Nepal designs and develops Next.js websites for businesses across Nepal that need the fastest, most visible, and most technically capable websites their category offers.
What is Next.js?
Next.js is a React-based web framework built by Vercel that provides the architecture and tooling to build production-quality websites and web applications that are fast by default. It extends React - the most widely used frontend JavaScript library - with features that are essential for real-world websites: server-side rendering, static site generation, image optimization, font loading optimization, built-in routing, and API route handling.
The practical effect of these features is that a Next.js website delivers page content to the browser faster, in a format that Google can index more completely, and with less client-side JavaScript execution that delays the point at which a visitor can actually interact with the page. These are not theoretical improvements - they show up in measurably lower load times, higher Google PageSpeed scores, and better Core Web Vitals results than equivalent websites built on slower platforms.
Next.js is maintained by Vercel and backed by the React ecosystem, which is the most actively developed frontend ecosystem in web development. It powers websites for some of the largest companies in the world - and it is equally applicable to a trekking company in Pokhara or a corporate office in Kathmandu that needs a website performing at the top of its category.
Why Next.js is the Right Choice for Websites in Nepal
Nepal's web environment has specific characteristics that make Next.js's performance advantages particularly valuable:
Nepal's Mobile-First, Variable-Connectivity Reality
More than 80% of website visits in Nepal come from mobile devices. Those devices range from flagship smartphones in Kathmandu to budget Android handsets in smaller cities and towns. Connection quality ranges from fast fiber broadband to variable 4G to 3G in areas without strong coverage. Next.js's static generation and image optimization deliver the fastest possible experience across this entire range - pages are pre-built and served from edge locations, reducing the distance and processing time between the server and the visitor's device.
Google Core Web Vitals and Nepal SEO
Google's Core Web Vitals - Largest Contentful Paint (LCP), Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS), and Interaction to Next Paint (INP) - are direct ranking factors. WordPress websites built on page builders consistently score poorly on these metrics because page builder JavaScript executes before content renders. Next.js websites, where content is pre-rendered as HTML and delivered immediately, score significantly better. For businesses competing for page-one positions in Google Search for Nepal-specific queries, the Core Web Vitals advantage of a well-built Next.js website over a page-builder WordPress site can be the ranking difference.
AI Search and Generative Engine Optimization
Google's AI Overviews, Perplexity, Bing Copilot, and other AI search tools cite web content as sources in their generated answers. Fast-loading, well-structured pages with clean HTML and clear content hierarchy are more reliably indexed and cited by these systems than slow pages with JavaScript-dependent rendering. Next.js's server-rendered and statically generated HTML is precisely the format AI search systems prefer to read and cite - making Next.js a forward-looking choice for businesses that want their content surfaced in AI-generated search results about Nepal's industries and services.
Next.js Website Development Services in Nepal
Corporate and Business Websites
Corporate websites need to convey credibility immediately - and credibility starts with performance. A corporate website that loads slowly or shifts layout as it loads signals technical neglect to visitors forming their first impression. Next.js corporate websites load instantly, maintain visual stability (no layout shift), and provide the technical foundation that supports strong Google rankings for company and service-related searches in Nepal.
We build Next.js corporate websites with service page architecture, leadership and team profiles, case study and portfolio sections, news and insight publishing, multi-office location management, and contact and inquiry functionality - all connected to a headless CMS for content management by non-technical communications staff.
Travel and Tourism Websites
Nepal's travel industry depends entirely on its online presence. Trekkers from Germany, Japan, Australia, and the US research Everest Base Camp treks, Annapurna Circuit permits, and rafting packages through Google. The travel companies that appear with fast-loading, visually compelling, information-complete websites convert that research into inquiries. Those appearing with slow, heavy pages built on dated WordPress themes lose visitors before the page finishes loading.
Next.js travel websites load destination pages, tour package details, and itinerary content in under two seconds - because the content is statically generated, not assembled on each request. When a trekker in Munich opens your Everest Base Camp page on a Saturday night, the page is already built and waiting. The connection to your server in Nepal is minimized. The content appears instantly.
Hotel and Hospitality Websites
Hotel websites need to load fast, display rooms beautifully, and convert visitors into direct bookings. Next.js's image optimization - automatic WebP conversion, responsive image serving, lazy loading - ensures hotel photography, which is central to conversion, loads progressively and immediately rather than blocking page render. Room type pages, gallery displays, and seasonal package promotions are statically generated for instant delivery, while real-time availability forms and booking inquiries are handled through dynamic API routes.
E-Commerce with Next.js
Headless e-commerce - a Next.js frontend connected to an e-commerce backend through APIs - delivers product pages significantly faster than WooCommerce-rendered pages. Product listing pages, category pages, and individual product detail pages are statically generated or incrementally regenerated, loading in under a second. The cart, checkout, and payment flows use dynamic rendering where real-time data is required. eSewa, Khalti, and other Nepali payment gateways are integrated through API routes on the Next.js backend.
For Nepali e-commerce businesses where mobile page load speed directly affects how many visitors complete a purchase, Next.js headless architecture delivers a measurable conversion rate improvement over WooCommerce running a standard theme.
News and Media Portals
News websites have two competing requirements: they need to load fast for readers arriving from Google Search or social media, and they need to publish new content that is indexed by Google quickly. Next.js's Incremental Static Regeneration (ISR) solves both simultaneously - articles are statically generated for instant delivery, and new articles and updates are automatically regenerated and served within seconds of publication without rebuilding the entire site. For Nepal's online news and media organizations, Next.js delivers the performance readers expect and the indexing speed that drives traffic.
SaaS and Web Application Frontends
SaaS products and web applications built on Laravel or Node.js backends benefit from Next.js as their frontend layer. Next.js's App Router architecture, React Server Components, and client-side interactivity provide the performance and developer experience needed to build complex, interactive application frontends that feel as fast as native apps. We build Next.js frontend applications connected to Laravel APIs for Nepali businesses and technology companies building software products.
Landing Pages and Marketing Sites
Performance matters most on landing pages, where the entire purpose is conversion. A landing page built in Next.js and statically generated loads in under a second on any device and connection speed - delivering the content and call to action before a visitor has time to lose interest. For Nepali businesses running Google Ads, Facebook Ads, or email marketing campaigns, a fast Next.js landing page converts significantly better than a WordPress page built with a page builder that loads in four to six seconds on mobile.
How Next.js Rendering Works - And Why It Matters for Your Business
Understanding how Next.js generates pages helps explain why it performs better than alternative approaches. This is not technical detail for its own sake - it directly explains the business advantage.
Static Site Generation (SSG)
Static generation builds pages at deploy time - the HTML for each page is created once and stored, ready to be delivered immediately to any visitor who requests it. There is no database query, no server processing, no template rendering on each request. The page is already built. For content that does not change frequently - tour package pages, hotel room descriptions, service pages, about pages - static generation delivers the fastest possible response time. A visitor's browser receives fully formed HTML in milliseconds rather than waiting for server processing.
Incremental Static Regeneration (ISR)
ISR extends static generation to content that changes regularly. Pages are statically generated for instant delivery, but Next.js automatically regenerates them in the background when they become stale - after a configured time interval or triggered by an on-demand revalidation event. For a news portal publishing dozens of articles daily, or an e-commerce store updating prices regularly, ISR provides static performance for every visitor while ensuring content stays current without requiring a full site rebuild.
Server-Side Rendering (SSR)
For pages that require real-time data - a user's account dashboard, a search results page, a live availability check - Next.js renders the page on the server for each request, sending complete HTML to the browser rather than requiring client-side JavaScript to fetch and render data. This is faster than traditional client-side React applications where the browser receives a near-empty HTML shell and builds the page through JavaScript execution - which is slow on budget Android devices and causes the poor Core Web Vitals scores that affect Google rankings.
React Server Components
Next.js 13 and above implements React Server Components - a rendering model where components that do not require interactivity are rendered on the server and sent to the browser as HTML, while only interactive components send JavaScript to the client. The result is significantly less JavaScript downloaded and executed by the visitor's browser, faster page interaction times, and better INP (Interaction to Next Paint) scores. For Nepal's mobile-heavy audience on budget devices, less JavaScript means faster, more responsive pages.
Next.js and Headless CMS - Content Management for Non-Technical Teams
Next.js websites are often connected to a headless CMS - a content management system that provides an admin interface for non-technical editors while delivering content through an API to the Next.js frontend. This separation means the website can be fast and custom-built without sacrificing the ability for content teams to manage pages, articles, and structured content independently.
We connect Next.js websites to headless CMS platforms based on the client's content management needs:
- Sanity - a flexible, real-time headless CMS with a customizable editing interface, well-suited for content-heavy sites with structured content types like tour packages, hotel rooms, or product catalogs
- Contentful - a well-established headless CMS with strong multi-language support, suitable for organizations managing content in both Nepali and English
- Strapi - a self-hosted open-source headless CMS that gives organizations full ownership of their content infrastructure without third-party SaaS dependency
- Custom Laravel CMS - for organizations that need a content management backend built entirely around their specific content types and workflows, with Next.js consuming the API
The headless architecture means the frontend Next.js website and the content management backend are decoupled - each can be updated, optimized, or replaced independently without requiring a full rebuild of the other.
Next.js Performance Features That Directly Benefit Nepali Websites
Automatic Image Optimization
Next.js's built-in Image component automatically converts images to WebP format (30 to 50% smaller than JPEG at equivalent quality), serves the correctly sized image for each device resolution, lazy loads images below the fold, and prevents layout shift during image loading. For tourism and hotel websites in Nepal where high-quality photography is central to the product, automatic image optimization means beautiful photography and fast loading are not mutually exclusive.
Font Optimization
Next.js's font optimization downloads Google Fonts at build time, hosts them on the same domain as the website, and eliminates the flash of unstyled text that occurs when fonts load from external sources. For websites using Nepali fonts (Preeti, Mangal, or other Devanagari fonts), this optimization eliminates the layout instability that causes poor CLS scores and poor reading experiences on slow connections.
Automatic Code Splitting
Next.js automatically splits JavaScript code so each page only loads the JavaScript it specifically needs - not the JavaScript for every other page on the site. On a WordPress page builder site, the full page builder JavaScript library loads on every page regardless of what that page actually does. On a Next.js site, a simple static page loads almost no JavaScript at all. This dramatically reduces the time to interactive on mobile devices.
Edge Runtime and Global Delivery
Next.js applications deployed on Vercel run on an edge network with servers distributed globally. A visitor in Kathmandu receives content from the nearest edge location - reducing latency compared to a website hosted on a single server in the US or Europe. For Nepali websites serving both local and international audiences (tourism, handicraft exports, education), edge delivery provides fast loading for all geographic segments simultaneously.

Our Next.js Development Process
1. Performance Benchmarking and Goal Setting
Every Next.js project begins by establishing current performance baselines - if the client has an existing website - and setting target PageSpeed and Core Web Vitals scores for the new site. These are not aspirational numbers; they are design constraints that inform technical decisions throughout the project. A site targeting a mobile LCP of under 1.5 seconds requires different image handling decisions than one targeting 2.5 seconds.
2. Architecture Design - Rendering Strategy per Page Type
We determine the correct rendering strategy for each page type before development begins. Static generation for tour package pages that update monthly. ISR for news articles that publish hourly. SSR for search results requiring real-time database queries. Server Components for content-heavy layouts. Client Components only where genuine interactivity is required. Getting rendering strategy right at the architecture stage prevents performance problems that are expensive to address after implementation.
3. Design - Mobile-First, Performance-Aware
We design Next.js websites with performance as a design constraint - not an afterthought. Image choices, font usage, animation decisions, and interactive component selection are all made with their performance impact considered. A beautifully designed Next.js website is one where the visual design and the performance targets are treated as complementary requirements from the first design screen, not competing concerns resolved after the fact.
4. Development with Performance Monitoring
We monitor Core Web Vitals scores throughout development - not just at launch. Changes that degrade LCP, CLS, or INP are caught during development rather than discovered after the site is live. We use Next.js's built-in analytics integration and Lighthouse CI to track performance metrics against the targets established in phase one throughout the development process.
5. Headless CMS Integration and Content Setup
We integrate the selected headless CMS, configure content types and schemas, build the API connection between the CMS and the Next.js frontend, and set up ISR revalidation so published and updated content appears on the live site within the configured time window. Content editors are trained on the CMS interface and can manage content independently from day one.
6. SEO Configuration and Structured Data
Every Next.js website we build includes complete SEO configuration using Next.js's built-in metadata API: title tags and meta descriptions per page, Open Graph tags, canonical URLs, hreflang for multilingual sites, robots.txt configuration, and XML sitemap generation. Structured data is implemented as JSON-LD for relevant page types - Local Business, Article, Product, FAQ, Event, Organization - and validated through Google's Rich Results Test before launch.
7. Deployment, Monitoring, and Handover
We deploy on Vercel for maximum Next.js performance and automatic edge delivery, or on DigitalOcean or AWS for organizations requiring data residency or specific hosting arrangements. Post-deployment, we configure uptime monitoring, performance monitoring, and error alerting. Content team training and technical documentation are completed before handover.
Why Choose WebApp Nepal for Next.js Development
- We target and deliver measurable performance scores. PageSpeed above 90 on mobile, Core Web Vitals in the green range - these are commitments we make at project start and deliver by configuring rendering strategy, images, fonts, and deployment correctly.
- We choose the right rendering strategy per page type. Not every page should be statically generated. Not every page needs SSR. Choosing incorrectly wastes performance on pages that could be faster, or breaks real-time requirements on pages that need live data. We make these decisions deliberately, not by default.
- We integrate Nepal-specific requirements natively. eSewa and Khalti payment APIs, Nepali font optimization, BS calendar handling for content scheduling, and Nepali SMS gateway integration - these are production experience, not documentation reading.
- We connect content management to non-technical editors. A fast Next.js website that only developers can update is not a business tool. We connect every Next.js website to a headless CMS your team can use from day one.
- We build for the AI search future. Clean server-rendered HTML, structured data, fast loading, and clear content hierarchy - these are the characteristics that make content citable in Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, and other AI search platforms. Next.js architecture is naturally aligned with how AI search systems prefer to read and cite web content.
Build a Next.js Website That Performs at the Top of Its Category
If your website is losing visitors because it loads slowly, ranking below competitors because its Core Web Vitals are poor, or failing to appear in AI-generated search results because its content is difficult for AI systems to parse - these are architectural problems that cannot be solved by adding a plugin or tweaking settings. They require a different foundation.
WebApp Nepal designs and develops Next.js websites for businesses across Nepal - built for the performance standards that Nepal's mobile-first, AI-search-influenced digital landscape now demands.

Frequently Asked Questions
Next.js is a React-based web framework that builds websites and web applications with server-side rendering, static site generation, and automatic performance optimization. In Nepal, Next.js is used for websites where page load speed, Google Core Web Vitals performance, and SEO are high priorities - travel and tourism sites, hotel websites, e-commerce stores, news portals, corporate websites, and SaaS application frontends. Next.js delivers pages significantly faster than WordPress page builder sites, which directly improves Google rankings and visitor conversion rates.
WordPress is a content management system that renders pages by querying a database and assembling HTML on each visitor request - a process that takes time, especially on budget shared hosting. Next.js pre-builds pages as HTML at deploy time (static generation) or generates them server-side with optimized rendering, delivering content to visitors faster than WordPress can assemble it. Next.js also produces significantly better Google Core Web Vitals scores than WordPress with page builders like Elementor or Divi, which is increasingly important for Google search rankings in Nepal.
Next.js website development cost in Nepal depends on the project scope. A business or corporate website built with Next.js and connected to a headless CMS typically costs NPR 1,00,000 to NPR 2,50,000. A travel or hotel website with custom design, tour package management, and booking inquiry integration ranges from NPR 1,50,000 to NPR 3,50,000. A Next.js headless e-commerce frontend connected to a product backend ranges from NPR 2,00,000 to NPR 5,00,000. WebApp Nepal provides detailed project quotes after a requirements session.
A standard Next.js business or corporate website takes 4 to 8 weeks from design approval to launch. A travel or hotel website with custom content management takes 6 to 10 weeks. A Next.js headless e-commerce build takes 8 to 14 weeks depending on the product catalog size and backend integration complexity. Timeline depends on how quickly design feedback is provided and whether content is ready before the development phase is complete.
Static site generation builds page HTML at deploy time - once - so the page is pre-built and waiting to be delivered instantly to any visitor who requests it. There is no database query, no server processing, no template rendering on each request. For content that does not change frequently - tour package pages, hotel room descriptions, service pages, about pages - static generation delivers the fastest possible response time. A visitor's browser receives fully formed HTML in milliseconds rather than waiting for server processing, which is why statically generated Next.js pages consistently score better on Google's Core Web Vitals than dynamically rendered WordPress pages.
Incremental Static Regeneration (ISR) allows Next.js pages to be statically generated for instant delivery while automatically regenerating them in the background when content changes or after a configured time interval. For a news portal publishing articles continuously, or an e-commerce store updating prices daily, ISR provides the performance of static generation for every visitor while ensuring content stays current - without requiring a full site rebuild every time something changes. ISR is one of Next.js's most practically valuable features for content-heavy Nepali websites.
Yes. Next.js significantly improves Google SEO performance through several mechanisms. Pages are server-rendered or statically generated as complete HTML, which Google's crawlers can fully index without executing JavaScript - unlike client-side React applications where content may not be properly indexed. Next.js produces better Core Web Vitals scores (LCP, CLS, INP) than WordPress page builder sites, and Core Web Vitals are direct Google ranking factors. Next.js also includes built-in metadata API for precise title tag and meta description control, and supports structured data implementation for rich results.
Yes. WebApp Nepal integrates eSewa, Khalti, and ConnectIPS payment gateways into Next.js websites and headless e-commerce builds. Payment processing is handled through Next.js API routes on the backend, with server-side payment verification, HMAC signature validation for eSewa, webhook handling for Khalti, and proper failed payment recovery flows. Payment integrations are tested against live sandbox environments before launch and configured to handle the production edge cases that appear in live Nepali payment processing.
A headless CMS provides a content management admin interface for non-technical editors while delivering content through an API rather than rendering it directly as a website. Next.js connects to the headless CMS API and uses the content to build pages - statically at deploy time or dynamically on request. This separation means the website can be a fast, custom-built Next.js frontend while content editors manage pages, articles, and structured content through a familiar admin interface. WebApp Nepal connects Next.js websites to Sanity, Contentful, Strapi, and custom Laravel CMS backends depending on the client's content management requirements.
Headless e-commerce separates the customer-facing website (built in Next.js for maximum speed) from the e-commerce backend (product management, orders, inventory) which connects through APIs. Product listing and detail pages are statically generated or incrementally regenerated for sub-second load times. Cart, checkout, and payment flows use dynamic rendering for real-time data. Nepali e-commerce businesses with high traffic, many products, or strong mobile conversion requirements benefit from headless architecture because the product page load speed improvement over WooCommerce directly increases the percentage of mobile visitors who complete a purchase.
Yes. Next.js has a built-in Image component that automatically converts images to WebP format (30 to 50% smaller than JPEG at equivalent quality), serves correctly sized images for each device resolution, lazy loads images below the fold to prioritize above-the-fold content, and prevents Cumulative Layout Shift during image loading. For tourism and hotel websites in Nepal where high-quality photography drives conversion, Next.js image optimization means beautiful, full-resolution photography and fast page loading are simultaneously achievable.
React Server Components are a Next.js rendering model where components that do not need interactivity are rendered on the server and sent to the browser as HTML - sending no JavaScript to the client for those components. Only interactive parts of the page send JavaScript. The result is significantly less JavaScript downloaded and executed by the visitor's device, faster Interaction to Next Paint scores, and better user experience on the budget Android phones that represent a large portion of Nepal's web audience. Less JavaScript means faster, more responsive pages on lower-powered devices.
Yes. Next.js websites fully support Nepali language content with Devanagari script. Next.js's font optimization handles Nepali font loading efficiently - downloading fonts at build time and hosting them on the same domain, eliminating the layout shift that occurs when Devanagari fonts load from external sources. For multilingual Next.js websites serving both Nepali and English audiences, Next.js has built-in internationalization support for language routing, with hreflang tag configuration for correct Google multilingual indexing.
Yes. Next.js is particularly well-suited for Nepal's travel and trekking industry. Tour package pages and destination content are statically generated for instant loading for international visitors researching from Europe, the US, Japan, and Australia - where the server distance to Nepal makes WordPress rendering latency more pronounced. Next.js image optimization handles the high-quality photography essential to tourism conversion. ISR keeps package details, pricing, and availability current without sacrificing static performance. And Next.js's Core Web Vitals performance advantage helps trekking company websites rank higher in Google Search for the international queries that drive trekking bookings.
Both Next.js and Gatsby are React frameworks that support static site generation. The key differences relevant for Nepali businesses: Next.js supports multiple rendering strategies (SSG, ISR, SSR, Server Components) in one framework, making it applicable to a wider range of content types - both fully static marketing sites and pages requiring real-time data. Gatsby is primarily optimized for fully static sites. Next.js has significantly more active development, a larger ecosystem, and stronger commercial backing through Vercel. For most Nepali website projects, Next.js is the more practical choice with greater long-term support.
Yes. Next.js is an excellent platform for news portals in Nepal. ISR allows articles to be statically generated for instant delivery to readers while new content published in the CMS triggers automatic page regeneration within seconds. This provides the performance readers expect alongside the rapid Google indexing that drives search traffic. News portals built on Next.js consistently achieve better Google PageSpeed scores and lower bounce rates than those built on WordPress with plugin-heavy setups.
Plain React (Create React App or Vite) produces client-side rendered applications - the browser downloads a near-empty HTML file and builds the page entirely through JavaScript execution. This produces poor SEO (Google may not fully index JavaScript-rendered content), poor Core Web Vitals (the page appears blank until JavaScript executes), and slow initial load on mobile devices. Next.js extends React with server-side rendering and static generation, delivering complete HTML to the browser immediately - solving the SEO and performance problems of client-side React for production websites.
WebApp Nepal deploys Next.js websites on the hosting environment that best fits the project's requirements. Vercel - Next.js's native hosting platform - provides automatic edge delivery, zero-configuration deployment, ISR support, and the fastest Next.js performance globally. For organizations requiring data residency in Nepal, specific server configurations, or cost optimization at high traffic volumes, we deploy on DigitalOcean or AWS with Next.js configured for self-hosted environments. Both deployment paths are supported and maintained.
Yes. WebApp Nepal connects every Next.js website to a headless CMS - Sanity, Contentful, Strapi, or a custom Laravel admin - providing an admin interface where non-technical staff can manage pages, publish articles, update structured content, and add media without touching code. The Next.js frontend automatically reflects CMS updates through ISR revalidation. Content editors work in the CMS interface; the Next.js frontend handles the performance. Technical staff are only needed for frontend code changes, not for routine content management.
Structured data (JSON-LD schema markup) is implemented in Next.js through server-rendered script tags that appear in the HTML source on every page load - readable by Google's crawlers without JavaScript execution. WebApp Nepal implements relevant schema types for each page: Local Business for location pages, Article for news content, Product for e-commerce pages, TouristTrip for tour packages, FAQ for service pages, and Organization for brand identity pages. Schema is validated through Google's Rich Results Test before launch and monitored through Search Console after.
Next.js is suitable for businesses of any size in Nepal. The performance and SEO advantages are equally valuable for a small trekking company in Pokhara competing for Google visibility as for a large corporate organization. The cost of a Next.js website is higher than a basic WordPress theme installation, but the improved Google rankings, better mobile performance for Nepal's 80% mobile audience, and faster load times that directly improve inquiry and sales conversion make it a strong return on investment for businesses where the website is a primary customer acquisition channel.
Contact WebApp Nepal to schedule an initial consultation. We discuss your business, the website's goals, the content it needs to manage, your performance and SEO priorities, and your budget and timeline. We establish performance targets - PageSpeed scores and Core Web Vitals goals - before design begins. We then provide a project proposal covering design approach, rendering strategy, headless CMS selection, and integration requirements. Most Next.js website projects for Nepali businesses launch within 6 to 12 weeks of design approval depending on scope.
