PandaCodeGen is a custom Next.js web development studio that rebuilds slow WordPress, Shopify, Webflow, Wix and Squarespace sites into fast custom code the client owns outright. Builds start at $1,500 with fixed pricing for the written scope, carry a 90+ Lighthouse handover target on mobile and desktop verified across three recorded runs, and have no monthly platform fees. Pages arrive as finished HTML with clear, direct answers that search engines and AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity can quote.
The migration standard
The rebuild is new. The critical paths stay accounted for.
Before we switch anything over, we write down what has to survive the move and how we will check each one. That is what we mean by SEO-safe: controls on the risk, not a promise about rankings.

We built its platform but hold no ownership stake. It is presented as operating experience, not as an independent client endorsement.
Decision controls
Make the commercial assumptions visible.
A custom build is not automatically cheaper, faster, or more appropriate than a managed platform. The useful comparison is the documented scope, operating model, risk, and measurement method for this site.

Migrations & New Builds
We list every page, every piece of content, your analytics, your forms and everything they connect to before we build anything. Then we test the switchover against criteria you signed off.
Custom Engineering
SaaS dashboards, internal tools, and AI integrations. When “off-the-shelf” isn't enough, we build exactly what you need.
Scoped separately
Product and internal-tool work starts with how it should be built, what data it holds, how it stays secure, what it connects to and what it will cost to run. Not a generic website package.
Search & AI Foundations
Pages a crawler can read, a business described the same way everywhere, structured data that matches what visitors see, and claims backed by a source. We cannot guarantee a citation.
Faster E-commerce
Headless Shopify and WooCommerce storefronts, when you have measured that the theme or an integration is genuinely the limit. Keep the commerce backend where it remains the right fit.

Who we help
Start with the situation.
These are common starting conditions. We investigate the closest match before recommending a build, migration, or integration.
Starting condition
Paid-media reporting does not reconcile with observed enquiries or sales.
Audit browser and server events, consent, attribution boundaries, and platform diagnostics before proposing tracking changes.
Starting condition
Customers leave somewhere between product discovery and completed checkout.
Measure page performance and the checkout path, identify supported causes, and scope only the changes the evidence justifies.
Starting condition
An agency needs engineering capacity with clear roles and accountable communication.
Document delivery roles, branding, confidentiality, approvals, timing assumptions, and commercial terms in the partner agreement.
Starting condition
Recurring tools overlap, create manual work, or are difficult to evaluate as a total stack.
Inventory subscriptions and replacement costs, then recommend custom software only where the expected benefit justifies build and maintenance.
Starting condition
The current website platform creates measurable performance or maintenance constraints.
Map URLs, content, integrations, DNS, analytics, rollback needs, and platform costs before recommending optimization or migration.
Starting condition
Existing GoHighLevel workflows remain useful while the public website needs independent review.
Assess frontend performance and API compatibility, then document which CRM workflows can remain and which dependencies need changes.
Starting condition
Important content is difficult for search and answer systems to discover, interpret, or attribute.
Audit crawlability, entity clarity, structured data, answer formatting, and source quality; inclusion and citation remain controlled by third parties.
Starting condition
Operational data is fragmented across spreadsheets and tools without a reliable source of truth.
Map workflows, permissions, data sources, update frequency, and reporting needs before scoping a dashboard or integration.

Model it on your own numbers
What could faster be worth to you?
Page speed and conversion rate are correlated across published retail research. This tool models what that relationship could be worth on your own numbers.
The calculation logic, stated openly
The model applies a flat 20% conversion-rate uplift to the traffic, conversion rate and order value youenter. That 20% is our own planning assumption, extrapolated from the Deloitte and Google “Milliseconds Make Millions” study (2020), which measured an 8.4% retail conversion lift from a 0.1s mobile improvement. It is not a measurement of your site and not a finding of that study.
Your actual result depends on your baseline speed, traffic mix, pricing, checkout and demand. Treat the output as an illustrative estimate for discussion, not a forecast, a promise, or a measured loss.

The Engineering Standard
We are not a “Digital Agency.”
Agencies sell hours. We sell a working system. We stripped out the layers that make B2B projects run late.
Founders, Not Account Managers
You work directly with the co-founder engineer building your site, one dedicated point of contact from discovery to launch. No account managers, no ticket queues, no freelancers who vanish mid-project.
Zero Outsourcing
We don't outsource to offshore teams. Every line of code is written by our core engineers, the same people you speak to on the discovery call.
You Own The IP
We hand over the full source code on day one. We deploy to your hosting account, not ours. No monthly maintenance retainer required. You are in full control.

FAQ
Common questions about migrating your platform
How much does WordPress to Next.js migration cost?
WordPress to Next.js migration starts at $1,500 for a 5 to 7 page business site (Starter), $3,500 for a 10 to 20 page site with blog migration and 301 redirects (Growth, most popular), and $5,000 to $10,000 for headless e-commerce with 30+ pages and custom integrations (Scale). Pricing is fixed for the scope written into the accepted project terms. We move your content, SEO settings and design to a custom coded site with no monthly plugin fees and no vendor lock in. Every plan carries a 90+ Lighthouse handover target on mobile and desktop for the agreed representative pages, verified across three recorded runs before handover.
How does the free AI website audit work?
The free audit analyses your website's load time, Core Web Vitals (the speed and stability signals Google reports), technical SEO and common security misconfigurations. Enter your URL and you get a breakdown of what the tests found, including your measured load time and Lighthouse performance score, plus specific recommendations. It runs in well under a minute and requires no signup. It is a point-in-time technical review, not a diagnosis of lost revenue.
How much faster will my site be after migrating from WordPress or Shopify?
It depends on your starting point, your templates and what runs on the page. Typical WordPress and Shopify sites we assess load in roughly 3 to 8 seconds; our builds target sub-second lab load times and a 90+ Lighthouse score on the agreed representative pages. What we commit to in writing is the handover target and the test conditions used to verify it, measured across three recorded runs on mobile and desktop. Field Core Web Vitals depend on your real traffic, devices and any third-party scripts added after launch, so those are monitored rather than promised.
Do you work with Shopify stores?
Yes. We build custom Shopify storefronts using headless architecture: your customers see a fast custom front end while you keep managing products and orders in Shopify as usual. If your store is slow because of app bloat, a heavy theme or unoptimised code, we replace the storefront layer with custom code while your entire Shopify backend stays in place for products, orders and payments. Speed improvement varies by store, so we measure your baseline before quoting.
Will I lose SEO rankings when migrating from WordPress?
No provider controls search rankings, so nobody can honestly guarantee they hold. What reduces avoidable risk is a documented process: a complete URL inventory, a one-to-one 301 redirect map, schema and metadata migration, sitemap regeneration, canonical consistency, a phased DNS cutover and Search Console monitoring afterwards. Your old site stays live until the new one is verified, and a rollback path is documented before cutover. Our MyCustomPatches migration is an owner-confirmed record: 22 days, rankings held, and hosting cost moved from $150/month to $0/month in the recorded period.
Why not just use a faster WordPress host or a caching plugin?
Faster hosting and caching help, but they do not change the underlying model: WordPress assembles each page on request by querying the database, loading plugins and rendering the theme. Caching plugins such as WP Rocket or W3 Total Cache put a static copy in front of that work, which helps until the cache misses, the page is personalised or a plugin update changes the output. A statically generated or server-rendered custom build removes the assembly step instead of hiding it, which is why the improvement holds up under load and after updates.
