React vs Next.js vs Astro for Business Sites

Pick the right modern stack for a marketing site, SaaS, e-commerce or content platform — based on SEO, DX, hosting cost and Indian developer availability.

Plain React (Vite SPA) is rarely the right choice for a marketing site in 2026. SEO, performance and AI crawlability favour SSR/SSG.

Next.js

Next.js — best for SaaS + e-commerce

App Router + RSC, ISR, edge runtime, image optimization. Ideal when you need auth, dynamic personalisation and a long-lived product surface.

Astro

Astro — best for content & marketing

Zero JS by default, MDX-first, islands architecture. Outperforms Next.js on Lighthouse for content-heavy sites and is cheaper to host.

React SPA

React SPA — rarely the right answer for SEO

Use Vite + React only for internal dashboards or authenticated apps where SEO is irrelevant.
