Migrate a Legacy PHP Site to Next.js
A custom PHP site only one freelancer understands is a liability, not an asset - a security surface, a hiring problem, and a single point of failure. We rebuild it as a Next.js app you own, with a CMS, analytics, and email run by chatting with an AI.
The legacy PHP liability
Old PHP tends to mean aging dependencies, a wide security surface, and code only one person can safely touch. When that person is unavailable, the business waits.
The risk compounds quietly until something breaks at the worst possible time.
What you move to
A self-hosted Next.js site in TypeScript - your code, your repo - with Sanity for content, PostHog for analytics, and your email platform wired in. Secure, fast, and built on a stack with a deep hiring pool.
Your site becomes your marketing team
Edit content, read your numbers, and send email by chatting with an AI, with a developer reviewing each change before it ships - no more waiting on one freelancer.
Proof
Fragile, hard-to-maintain code became one owned system.
SolasMind ran on brittle, stitched-together infrastructure. We consolidated it into one Next.js system they own and run themselves - the same move off legacy fragility a PHP rebuild makes.
