Thirteen production sites, and how each one was actually built

EngineeringNext.js application server (confirmed by an x-powered-by: Next.js response header) fronted by Caddy for TLS termination, serving server-rendered Hindi article markup at lang="hi" with NewsMediaOrganization, WebSite and SearchAction JSON-LD emitted on the document.

In plain termsPublishes Uttarakhand's daily Hindi news in a form Google News and search engines can read the moment a story goes live.

EngineeringA second tenant of the same Next.js publishing platform, this one served through Cloudflare (server: cloudflare, x-powered-by: Next.js) with the heaviest editorial payload of the three regional editions and the same NewsMediaOrganization / SearchAction structured-data graph.

In plain termsGives Himachal Pradesh its own Hindi news brand without rebuilding the publishing system from scratch.

EngineeringThird tenant of the same Next.js + Caddy publishing stack, live and serving a correctly structured empty state (the homepage renders अभी कोई प्रकाशित खबर उपलब्ध नहीं — "no published stories yet") with its NewsMediaOrganization and WebSite JSON-LD identity already in place.

In plain termsThe Haryana masthead is built, deployed and search-ready; it starts ranking from day one of publishing rather than from month three.

EngineeringWordPress origin behind nginx, instrumented with GA4 via Google Tag Manager and monetised with Google AdSense; the document carries the richest structured-data graph of the portfolio — NewsArticle, NewsMediaOrganization, CollectionPage, ItemList, ContactPoint and SearchAction — plus hreflang alternates.

In plain termsRuns a full English news desk on a CMS the editors already know, while the technical SEO and ad plumbing is handled underneath them.

EngineeringA purpose-built PHP news portal (single /assets/js/app.js bundle with a cache-busting version query, no CMS footprint in the markup) behind Cloudflare, carrying a complete news structured-data graph — NewsMediaOrganization, CollectionPage, ItemList, BreadcrumbList, ImageObject, SearchAction — with GA4 and AdSense wired in.

In plain termsA news site that loads fast on a cheap phone because there is no plugin stack sitting between the reader and the story.

EngineeringSame custom PHP news engine as ReadyNews, deployed behind Cloudflare with dated build tags on its assets (app.js?v=20260705atlas1), serving a dense homepage — 90 internal links and 28 images in the initial HTML — under a NewsMediaOrganization / CollectionPage / BreadcrumbList / ItemList structured-data graph.

In plain termsPuts a large amount of the day's news one click from the front page, without making the front page slow.

EngineeringRuns on PHP 8.2.30 (declared in x-powered-by) — a maintained, current runtime rather than a legacy 7.x install — serving a custom news application with three reader-facing forms, GA4 property G-BVNH0Z14GM and AdSense inventory, with WebSite + SearchAction JSON-LD.

In plain termsCovers news, business, tech, sport and politics under one brand, and lets readers search and subscribe without leaving the page.

EngineeringAstro site (public source at github.com/codehippies11/fitwithnash) deployed to Vercel's edge network — the served page is essentially all content and almost no asset weight, and it carries the deepest structured-data graph in the portfolio: Person, ProfessionalService, Service, OfferCatalog, Offer, EducationalOccupationalCredential, Audience and a full FAQPage.

In plain termsTurns a nutritionist's practice into a single page that answers every question a prospective client has, then books them.

EngineeringContent-rich agency site (35 images, an enquiry form, a full section outline) whose entire commercial offer is mirrored in JSON-LD — Service, OfferCatalog, Offer, ContactPoint, PostalAddress, ImageObject and an FAQPage graph — so the service list is legible to search engines, not just to visitors.

In plain termsExplains everything the agency sells, answers the usual questions up front, and captures enquiries on the same page.

EngineeringNext.js application (x-powered-by: Next.js, _next asset routes) served behind LiteSpeed, with an Organization + WebSite + PostalAddress JSON-LD identity and a disciplined document outline — one <h1> carrying the positioning statement, section <h2>s beneath it.

In plain termsA brand site that reads like the agency it is selling — sharp, fast, and unmistakably positioned in the first line.

EngineeringVite-built React SPA — an ES-module entry at /assets/index-<hash>.js with content-hashed CSS beside it — shipping a roughly 1 KB HTML shell, Tailwind design tokens (bg-primary, text-secondary, font-body) and preconnected Google Fonts (Space Grotesk / Sora).

In plain termsA fast, app-like marketing site where every interaction happens instantly without a page reload.

EngineeringVite + React single-page app whose document head is fully specified for distribution — Open Graph title/description/type/url/image, a Twitter summary-large-image card, theme-color for mobile browser chrome, plus author and keyword metadata — before a single line of application JavaScript executes.

In plain termsEvery time someone shares the site in a message or on social, it renders as a proper branded preview card instead of a bare link.

EngineeringStatic HTML deployed to Vercel, built on Bootstrap 5 with jQuery slim and Popper — the whole document is roughly 21 KB, has no application framework and no build pipeline, so it will still render correctly with no intervention years from now.

In plain termsGives the ashram a permanent, free-to-run web presence that loads instantly even on a weak rural connection.
