React & Next.js Websites
Fast React and Next.js websites and web apps, built in-house in Johannesburg. From R16 500.
Rusted Web builds React and Next.js websites in-house, from R16 500 for a marketing site of up to 8 pages and from R45 000 for a web app, client portal or dashboard. Next.js renders every page on the server, so Google and AI crawlers receive finished pages they can read straight away.
A plain client-side React app sends the browser an almost empty page plus a bundle of JavaScript, and the content only appears once that script runs. Search engines and many AI crawlers can miss or delay that content, which hurts your visibility. Next.js avoids the problem. We pair it with Supabase for the database and sign-in, and deploy on Vercel. Not sure which fits? Read WordPress or Next.js: which is right for your business, or look at our custom WordPress websites from R5 900. We also run your app through Next.js and app hosting from R750 a month.
React & Next.js Websites questions
A Next.js marketing website in South Africa typically costs between R18 000 and R120 000, depending on scope. Rusted Web builds marketing sites of up to 8 pages from R16 500, and web apps, client portals and dashboards from R45 000. You receive a fixed written quote before any work starts, so the price does not drift.
Choose WordPress if you want a fast, affordable site your team can edit easily, which suits most small businesses. Choose Next.js if you need an app-like product such as a portal, dashboard or logins, or very custom behaviour. Both can rank well. If you are unsure, tell us what the site must do and we will recommend the simpler option.
A React website is good for SEO only if its pages are rendered on the server. A plain client-side React app sends a nearly empty page, so crawlers may miss content. Next.js renders finished HTML for every page, so Google and AI tools can read it immediately. We add titles, schema, sitemaps and clean URLs on top.
A Next.js marketing site usually takes 3 to 6 weeks, and a web app or portal 6 to 12 weeks, depending on features and how quickly we receive content and feedback. You review a private preview link throughout the build, so there are no surprises at launch, and we handle the deployment to Vercel for you.
Yes, but how depends on the build. We can connect Next.js to a headless CMS or to WordPress, so you edit text, images and posts in a familiar editor while the site stays fast. For apps, we build simple admin screens for the things you change often. Anything else, we change for you on request.
You own the website and its code once the build is paid. The project lives in a repository under your own account, and it deploys to your own Vercel and Supabase accounts, so you are never locked in. Rusted Web can host and manage it for you from R750 a month, or hand everything over.
