// 09WEB QUESTIONS

The ones people actually ask.

WordPress vs Next, hosting, source code, SEO — answered.

WordPress was fast in 2010. In 2026 — plugin bloat, slow LCP, security patches every other week. We build on Next.js + a headless CMS — same content workflow for your editors, but 3x the performance and clean code.
