    Every edit becomes a dev ticket

  • Core Web Vitals checked before launch

    Speed problems found after launch

  • Redirect map signed off before go-live

    Rankings at risk in the switch

Frequently Asked Questions

    • What Is Astro Used For?

      Astro is a web framework for content-heavy sites such as marketing sites, blogs and docs. It renders pages to HTML and only ships JavaScript where a page needs it, so pages load fast and are easy for search engines and AI crawlers to read.

    • Astro vs Next.js: Which Should We Use?

      Use Astro when the site is mostly content: marketing pages, blogs and docs. Use Next.js when the site behaves like an app, with logged-in users and heavy interactivity. Many teams run both, with Astro for the marketing site and Next.js for the product.

    • What CMS Works Best With Astro?

      Astro has no built-in CMS, so it pairs with a headless one. We usually recommend Sanity for structured content that gets reused across pages, and Contentful or Storyblok when a team already runs them. Your team edits in the CMS and Astro rebuilds the pages.

    • Can You Migrate Our Site to Astro Without Losing SEO?

      Yes. Astro can keep any URL path, so most pages keep their exact address. Anything that changes gets one 301 redirect, and we check titles, canonicals and structured data page by page before launch.

    • Do You Offer Support After an Astro Site Launches?

      Yes. Most clients move to a monthly retainer for new pages, experiments and upgrades. We keep Astro and your integrations current so the site doesn't drift.
