How is this different from the hand-coded option?

Same price, different capability. Hand-coded is faster and has nothing to maintain, but every page is fixed. React can respond to what a visitor does. If nothing on your site needs to respond to anything, you do not need this.

Yes, because it is built to render on the server rather than leaving a crawler looking at an empty page. React sites get their SEO reputation from being built the wrong way, not from being React.

You do, on your own account, and I set it up. A React site needs more than plain file hosting, so the requirements differ from a static build. I will tell you what it needs before you buy anything.

React & Node.js Website

For when the site has to do something.

For sites that do something - logins, bookings, calculators, dashboards. Real logic, hand-built, priced level with the static build on purpose.

The question that decides whether you need this is simple. Does a visitor do something on the site, or just read it? Reading is a static site. Searching, filtering, logging in, booking against live availability, or pulling data from another system is this.

Who it is for — pick yours

Logins, bookings, calculators, member areas, dashboards - anything where the page changes per visitor is application work, and this is the build for it.

The usual path: the brochure site did its job and now the business logic wants in. We keep what ranks, rebuild what limits you, and nothing goes dark during the switch.

React is more work for the same page count, and it is priced level anyway - you pay for the outcome, not my hours. I said that out loud on the pricing page too.

What it costs

Published, not quoted on request.

Priced level with the hand-coded build at the same page count, which is deliberate rather than an oversight. It is more work for me, and it means nobody picks the simpler build purely to save money.

Tell me what the site has to do

Describe what a visitor should be able to do that they cannot do now. That answers the build question faster than a page count does, and it costs nothing to describe.
