Best practices for building a scalable microsite for a growing Android app?

Tags: Apple, Browser, Mobile

Hey folks,

I’m working on an Android app that helps users earn small rewards by completing micro-tasks. As the user base is growing, I want to make sure our site is scalable and reliable — particularly for traffic spikes from referral campaigns.

I’m curious:
– Should I go with a static site setup or CMS-based solution?
– Any recommended stacks or CDNs for fast performance in India?
– What are some best practices for managing app traffic and user acquisition pages?

Would really appreciate insights from anyone who’s dealt with similar scaling or hosting scenarios.

Static vs CMS: If your microsite is mostly informational content updates (promo pages, feature highlights, FAQs), a static site with a headless CMS gives you the best performance. Tools like Next.js + Sanity/Contentful or even Hugo + Netlify CMS could be nice combos.

Stacks & CDNs (India): Cloudflare for a CDN (strong edge delivery & cost-efficient), If you want server-side rendering Next.js deployed on Vercel or Nuxt with Cloudflare Pages is super.

Best Practices:

– For reducing server load use Pre-render key pages
– Use smart caching headers for dynamic personalization
– Test under load using tools
