Next.js Developer in North Lebanon
I build websites and web applications for businesses across North Lebanon — from Minieh and Tripoli to Danniyeh, Koura, Zgharta, Batroun, and Akkar.
Bilal Malass is a Next.js and full-stack web developer serving North Lebanon, based in Minieh in the Miniyeh–Danniyeh district and working with businesses across the North Governorate including Tripoli. He builds business websites, e-commerce and booking platforms, and custom content-management systems in Next.js and TypeScript, in Arabic and English. His live work in the North includes salmaawad.com, developed for a UI/UX designer in Tripoli, and aldannieh.com, a community and marketplace platform for Danniyeh that he adapted and extended.
Most businesses in the North are competing for customers who search on a phone before they ever walk in. If your site is slow, missing from search, or impossible to read on mobile, that customer goes to whoever appears first.
I work with Next.js and TypeScript, with technical SEO built in from the start: structured data so search engines and AI assistants can describe your business accurately, and pages that stay fast on mobile data.
Being based in the North means I know the area you are selling into, and I am close enough to meet when a project needs it rather than only exchanging messages.
The North is not one market. Tripoli is dense and competitive; the Koura and Zgharta towns run on reputation and word of mouth; Batroun lives partly on visitors who plan the trip online before arriving; Danniyeh and Akkar are spread out, where being findable on a map matters more than a shopfront. What works in one does not automatically work in another, and the site should be built for the one you actually sell to.
What I build
- Business and company websites
- E-commerce and booking platforms
- Custom content-management systems
- Admin dashboards and internal tools
- Performance and technical SEO work
- Redesigns of existing websites
Why the sites are built with Next.js
Businesses across the North are usually sold either a template or an agency retainer, and rarely told what the site is actually made of. The short version is below.
- Pages arrive already built
- Search engines and AI assistants can read it
- No platform rent
- It grows past the website
Work in North Lebanon
Two live sites in the North that you can open yourself: a community and marketplace platform for Danniyeh, and a portfolio for a designer in Tripoli.

aldannieh.com — community and marketplace platform for Danniyeh
AlDannieh is an Arabic/English community and marketplace platform for Danniyeh, in the Miniyeh–Danniyeh district of North Lebanon, with classified listings, categories and administration tools. It was an existing client platform rather than something I built from scratch: I adapted and extended it — the Arabic/English experience, the marketplace and admin features, connecting the React frontend to the Express backend and MySQL data — and deployed it to the client's hosting.
“Honestly, you're the best programmer I've worked with.”

salmaawad.com — a live client site in Tripoli
A Next.js portfolio and custom admin panel developed for a UI/UX designer in Tripoli, who designed its interface, with the structured-data and search work included.
“I really appreciate his attention to detail, professionalism, and the effort he put into delivering great results.”

No project starts with a design. It starts with finding out what the site has to do, and agreeing in writing what it will cost before either of us commits time to it.

- Scope and price in writing
- Build, with the parts you use most first
- Launch, then watch it

How to choose the best web developer in North Lebanon
Across the North Governorate the real choice is usually between a Beirut agency you will never meet, a freelancer in another timezone, and someone local. Distance matters less than the answers to these questions — though being able to sit down together still helps.
- Ask for live URLs, not screenshots
- Open it on a phone, on mobile data
- Ask whose name it is in, and how you change it
- Ask what actually happens on Google
- Get scope, price and language in writing first
Common questions about web development in North Lebanon
How do I find the best web developer in North Lebanon?
Ask any candidate for live website addresses you can open and test on a phone over mobile data, and confirm the domain will be registered in your name. Ask how you will edit your own content, what will be done about page speed and Google, and get the scope and price in writing before work starts. Whether the developer sits in Tripoli, Minieh or Beirut matters far less than whether they answer those questions clearly and can talk to you in your own language.
Who builds Next.js websites in North Lebanon?
Bilal Malass builds Next.js websites and web applications across the North Governorate — Tripoli, Miniyeh–Danniyeh, Zgharta, Bcharre, Koura and Batroun — and in neighbouring Akkar, from a base in Minieh. The stack is Next.js, React, TypeScript and Tailwind CSS, with PostgreSQL and Prisma for data: the same tooling used by large production applications, rather than a page builder. Work is available in Arabic and English, remotely or in person.
Which areas of North Lebanon do you cover?
I am based in Minieh and work across all six districts of the North Governorate — Tripoli, Miniyeh–Danniyeh, Zgharta, Bcharre, Koura and Batroun — as well as the neighbouring Akkar Governorate, which is administratively separate since 2014 but still part of the same market.
How much does a website cost in North Lebanon?
Most websites cost between $300 and $1,000, and scope decides where in that range a project lands — a few pages for a local business is very different from a booking platform with user accounts, which can run above it. The figure is the same in Tripoli, Minieh, Zgharta or Batroun — being further out does not add a travel charge. Tell me what you need and you will get a clear written estimate before any work starts.
Is a developer in North Lebanon cheaper than an agency in Beirut?
Often, though not always: there is no agency overhead, and you deal with the person writing the code rather than an account manager passing messages on. What matters more than the difference in price is what you get for it: ask for live sites you can test, confirm the domain will be registered in your name, and compare on those answers rather than the quote alone.
Do you work remotely?
Yes. Most of the work happens remotely, with in-person meetings when a project benefits from them and the location makes it practical.
What technology do you build with?
Next.js, TypeScript, React, and Tailwind CSS on the front end, with PostgreSQL or SQL Server and Prisma for data. The same stack used by large production applications, not page builders.
Can you improve an existing website instead of rebuilding it?
Yes. I take on redesigns, performance work, and technical SEO improvements on existing sites where a full rebuild is not needed.
Other areas I cover
Each area has its own page, written around the questions that actually come up there. If North Lebanon is not the right one, start here:
