Premium Web Development,
Built for Speed & Growth

A custom Next.js site with Payload CMS, deployed on Vercel’s edge — fast for visitors, simple for your team.

Premium Tier

When your website is part of how the business runs, not just how it looks.

Premium starts from the same custom design and SEO groundwork as every IWD build, then moves it onto a modern stack: Next.js on the front end, Payload CMS for editing, and Vercel’s edge network for hosting.

The result is a site that loads fast everywhere, holds up as traffic and content grow, and still hands off cleanly — your team edits in a dashboard built around your content, not a plugin-heavy admin.

What’s included

Everything in Standard

Discovery, custom design, on-page SEO, mobile-first build, contact forms, training, and launch QA — the full Standard foundation comes along.

Next.js performance build

A modern React framework that pre-renders pages for near-instant loads and strong Core Web Vitals scores.

Payload CMS, made for handoff

A clean editing dashboard shaped around your content — no plugin clutter, no settings you’ll never use.

Vercel edge deployment

Your site is served from a global edge network, so it’s fast for visitors wherever they are, with automatic HTTPS.

Structured content modeling

Services, locations, team members, case studies — each content type is modeled on purpose, so the site grows without getting messy.

Advanced SEO & schema

Deeper structured data, generated sitemaps, and clean URLs built into the content model, not bolted on afterward.

Leaner security surface

No public WordPress admin and no third-party plugin stack to patch — far fewer doors for anyone to try.

Room to grow

Integrations, gated content, or app-like features can be added later on the same foundation, without a rebuild.

How scope affects price

Like Standard, Premium is scoped by complexity, not page count. A fast, well-structured marketing site sits at the simpler end. A site with integrations, many content types, or app-like features sits further along. Either way, you’ll know exactly where you fall before any work begins — not after.

Who this is for

Premium fits businesses where speed, scale, or custom functionality matter: growing teams publishing a lot of content, sites that need to connect to other systems, or brands that compete on how fast and polished the experience feels. It includes everything in our Standard custom WordPress tier, on a stack built to go further.

Questions & Answers

Questions about the Premium tier

What is the difference between Standard and Premium?

Both are custom-designed and hand-built. Standard runs on WordPress, which suits most small businesses. Premium is built with Next.js and Payload CMS and hosted on Vercel, adding speed, a cleaner editing experience, and room for integrations and custom features. Compare with the Standard tier.

Can I still edit the site myself?

Yes. Payload CMS gives you an editing dashboard shaped around your own content, so updating pages, posts, and media is straightforward, and we train your team at handoff.

Who owns the website when it is finished?

You do. The code, the content, and the domain are yours, and we build everything to be handed off cleanly. If you are weighing options, a consulting audit will help you choose.
