Self-Hosted Landing Page with CMS and Waitlist (Next.js + Payload)

Posted 4 weeks ago

Worldwide

Summary

We need a clean, fast landing page built from a design we already have. The main job is to turn that design into a working page and wire up a "Join the Waitlist" form that saves emails. The page should look sharp on mobile and desktop and load quickly. We want the whole thing self-hosted on our own server so we own everything and keep costs low. The setup is a Next.js app with Payload CMS built into it (Payload 3.0 runs inside Next.js, so the page and the CMS share one codebase). It all runs on a Hetzner VPS deployed through Dokploy, with a single Postgres database holding both the page content and the waitlist signups. Please set up automated database backups from the start. This won't be a one-off. We'll reuse it as a template to build similar landing pages for our clients, so build it cleanly and document it. Structuring it so we can easily duplicate and rebrand per client is a big plus. You should be comfortable with Next.js, Payload CMS, and self-hosting on a VPS (Docker, Hetzner, Dokploy or similar). A portfolio of fast, clean landing pages helps. To apply, share two or three relevant projects with live links if possible, briefly explain how you'd handle the self-hosted deployment and backups, and give us your timeline and fixed price for this first page. Do well and there's ongoing work. Ideally someone that use Claude Code to build this. You need experience with deploying to servers.
