In a traditional CMS setup, each time you load a page the frontend fetches content from the backend, typically using a lot of resources. A headless website serves a static pre-built version of the page in the frontend, regenerated in the background via an API. This leads to faster and more efficient loading, improving the experience for you and the user.
Headless Websites
Supercharged website
performance
Go above and beyond with your website performance. Our headless websites decouple the customer-facing front end from the backend content management. This approach combines highly usable and manageable platforms like WordPress and Sanity with the frontend flexibility of frameworks like React.js to offer an elevated website experience.
Boosted performance
Improved flexibilty
With headless, the backend and frontend of your website can be developed and managed separately. This means our developers can choose whichever front-end framework is best, allowing for greater control and customisation. You can also interchange parts of your stack, or move from one frontend framework to another without affecting the CMS.
Enhanced security
Because a headless CMS is separated from the frontend website, there’s a smaller area of attack to aim at. This reduces the chances of your CMS being targeted and breached. It also means if the frontend is breached, your backend would remain untouched, as they’re separate.
Transitioning to headless - Davidson Homes
We worked with long term client partner, American housebuilder Davidson Homes, to transition from their WordPress environment to a headless website powered by Sanity CMS, allowing them to work with complex channels of data and 3rd party integrations whilst keeping the customer facing experience super quick.
