Webfirst is a web application development business that creates modern web applications with React and Next.js, as well as custom API integrations and applications for your business needs. I have built this website with Next.js using the new app router and Strapi headless CMS.

I have been working on this for about a year now, and this is the third iteration of the website, I finally decided to build it with Next.js and Strapi, because it is the easiest to setup for simple blogging + eCommerce applications and Next.js will improve SEO to get my website higher in Google search results. Webfirst does not just stop at Strapi and Next.js though, I can also implement custom API integrations with Node.js, and set up any database you need through either Amazon RDS, or a Railway instance, I prefer to set it up on Railway initially, until a website grows in traffic, because Amazon RDS will still charge, even if there are minuscule amounts of read or writes to the database.

Second iteration of webfirst.co.nz (https://web.archive.org/web/20220122011954/https://webfirst.co.nz/):

Webfirst will make sure that your company ranks high in the Google search results, I haven't made the purchase yet, but I have tried out Semrush and Ahrefs for SEO research, I prefer Ahrefs, because it is a bit easier to use than Semrush and cheaper. I would also setup a Google business account, so that you will be seen when people are specifcally looking for businesses.
