Web development with Astro

Astro generates static HTML pages and loads JavaScript only in the components that need it. I use it for services sites, portfolios, landing pages and blogs, where speed and SEO matter.

This Geekguayaco site is built with Astro, with the content in Markdown and published on Cloudflare.

What's included

Light, fast HTML

Static pages that load fast and can be read in full from the first byte, search engines included.

Technical SEO

Titles and descriptions per page, canonical URLs, sitemap, structured data and RSS generated at build time.

Optimized images

Conversion to modern formats, responsive sizes and fixed dimensions to avoid layout shifts.

Islands of interactivity

Forms, carousels or search as isolated components, without loading JavaScript on the rest of the page.

Content in files

Blog and projects in Markdown inside the repository, with no database or panel to maintain.

Deployment on Cloudflare

Automatic publishing from the repository and functions for forms, with no server to manage.

When it makes sense

  • You have a services site, portfolio or landing page that must load fast and rank.
  • You want a simple site to maintain, without plugins or constant updates.
  • You or your team can edit text files instead of using a panel.
  • You prefer to pay little for hosting and have a stable site.

Frequently asked questions

Astro or WordPress?

Astro makes sense when the content changes little or a developer manages it, and performance and SEO are the priority. WordPress makes sense when your team needs to edit content every day from a panel. I work with both and recommend one depending on the case.

Can I add content without knowing how to code?

On an Astro site the content lives in Markdown files. It is simple, but it needs a repository workflow. If you need a visual panel to edit, WordPress is the better option.

Can a static site have forms?

Yes. The form is an interactive island that sends the data to a Cloudflare function, which forwards the message to your email.

Does it improve rankings?

Good performance and correct technical SEO help, but rankings also depend on content, competition and time. I don't promise positions; what I deliver is a technically well-built site.
