FAQs

Frequently asked questions.

Common questions about hiring remote next.js & headless cms developers through Zedtreeo.

Can you migrate a WordPress site to Next.js?
Yes — this is one of our specialty engagements. Our senior developers handle URL mapping (preserving slugs and 301 redirects for SEO equity), content import to Sanity/Contentful/Strapi or headless WordPress, image asset migration, sitemap continuity, schema preservation, and parity testing. A typical 50-page brochure site migrates in 3–6 weeks. Larger sites with custom plugins take longer — we'll scope honestly during the brief.
Which headless CMS do you recommend?
Depends on the team. Sanity for developer-led teams with custom schemas. Contentful for marketing-led teams with structured content needs. Prismic for content teams wanting visual editing. Strapi for self-hosted requirements. Headless WordPress (via WPGraphQL) when you want to keep an existing WP editorial workflow. We can match developers who've shipped on each, or who can advise on selection.
Do your developers use App Router or Pages Router?
Both. App Router is our default for new builds (Server Components, streaming, edge). Pages Router still ships on many existing codebases — our developers maintain both and migrate when it makes sense. We don't insist on App Router if your codebase is stable on Pages.
What's the difference vs hiring a React developer?
A Next.js developer is a React developer with production experience in routing, SSR/SSG/ISR, server components, edge runtime, image optimization, and SEO at the framework level. If you're building a simple SPA, a React developer is fine. If you need SEO, performance, and a content layer, hire Next.js specifically.
How do you screen for Next.js skills specifically?
Beyond the standard 5-stage screening (tool audit, workflow test, communication, SOP comprehension, AI output review), Next.js candidates complete a Next.js-specific exercise: a small App Router build with a Sanity or REST data source, ISR config, and Lighthouse pass. We see how they think about routing + caching + revalidation, not just whether they can write JSX.
Can you help plan the migration before we hire?
Yes — for a free 30-minute discovery call, our senior developers review your current site, current performance, and migration goals. We propose a phased plan with cost + timeline ranges before you commit to a placement. If we don't think Next.js is the right call for you, we'll say so.
