Website Development channel mix for Healthtech & Telehealth
Channel / surface
Weight
Industry-specific rationale
Next.js (App Router + RSC)
Primary
Default for content-heavy marketing sites, programmatic SEO at scale, and headless commerce. Deploys to Vercel or Cloudflare Workers. For healthtech & telehealth, weight is moderated given the category's CAC band of 500–7,500 ₹.
Webflow
Supporting
Best when in-house marketing team will own the CMS and dev capacity is constrained. Trade-off: less control over performance + custom logic. For healthtech & telehealth, weight is moderated given the category's CAC band of 500–7,500 ₹.
Shopify (Plus or standard)
Primary
D2C commerce default. Shopify-native vs Shopify Hydrogen (headless) chosen against catalog complexity + custom-UX needs. For healthtech & telehealth, weight is moderated given the category's CAC band of 500–7,500 ₹.
Headless (Next.js + Sanity / Shopify)
Compounding
For brands where marketing site + commerce + content need shared design system and editorial workflows. Higher upfront build, lower long-term content velocity. For healthtech & telehealth, weight is moderated given the category's CAC band of 500–7,500 ₹.
