Spent today fixing SEO issues on my site

Ran a full SEO audit on my project today. Found out Google had 39 pages stuck in "Discovered not indexed."

What I fixed:

  • Switched profile pages from force-dynamic to ISR caching

  • Converted my AI agent page from client to server component so crawlers can actually see it

  • Added schema markup (BreadcrumbList, Person, Organization, SoftwareApplication)

  • Removed unoptimized images, enabled AVIF/WebP

  • Added an About page for E-E-A-T signals

  • Updated sitemap with all missing pages

Resubmitted the sitemap, checked Search Console, down to 2 not-indexed pages now. Ranking dipped temporarily but from what I've read that's normal after big changes.

Got rejected by YC, building VertoX anyway

Hey everyone

Over the past ~6 months, I applied to Y Combinator a few times, but didn t get in.

We re still early (pre-seed), but the process actually helped me think much deeper about what we re building.

Right now, I m working on VertoX, a real-time voice translation that lets you speak any language on calls while keeping your tone, emotions, and your own voice.
