Headless CMS — Hull, East Yorkshire
HD CMS — A Headless CMS Built for Real Businesses
I didn't just adopt headless architecture. I built my own CMS from the ground up. It powers 15+ live sites right now.
Why I Built My Own CMS
After years of building on WordPress, Magento, Drupal, and every headless CMS on the market — Sanity, Strapi, Contentful — I kept hitting the same walls. Vendor lock-in. Pricing that scales against you. Features that don't quite fit. Plugins that break on update.
So I built HD CMS. API-first, block-based, designed for the kind of sites real small businesses actually need. Pages, blog, products, bookings, CRM — all built in. No plugins. No third-party dependencies. One platform that I control end to end.
How It Works
Content Management
Pages, posts, products, bookings, menus — all managed through a clean admin interface.
API Delivery
Content delivered via API. The frontend consumes exactly what it needs.
Bespoke Frontend
Your website is built with Nuxt 3. Completely unique to your brand.
Edge Deployment
Deployed to Vercel Edge. Globally distributed. Fast everywhere.
What HD CMS Does
Page Builder
20+ block types. Drag and drop. No code needed for content updates.
Commerce
Products, variants, stock, Stripe checkout. No Shopify. No WooCommerce.
Bookings
Availability, deposits, intake forms, confirmations. Built for service businesses.
CRM
Customer database, enquiries, tagging, activity tracking.
AI-Ready
Everything is JSON. Block-based. File-based content editing. AI can work with it natively.
Platform Effect
When I improve the CMS, every client site benefits. One upgrade, 15+ sites improved.
Not Another SaaS CMS
HD CMS isn't a SaaS product you sign up for. It's the platform behind every website I build. You get a bespoke frontend, a proper CMS behind it, and direct access to the developer who built both.
No lock-in. No escalating pricing tiers. No features hidden behind enterprise plans. Just a solid platform, a bespoke site, and straightforward monthly pricing from £20/month.
