v2.3.0 - SEO Fixes & Core Web Vitals

August 13, 2026

✨Performance Boost: Migrated heavy .webp blog thumbnails to highly optimized inline SVG icons, significantly improving Core Web Vitals and LCP.
🚀SEO Cannibalization Fix: Removed duplicate "Online Compass" keywords from sub-tools (Vastu Compass, Qibla Finder, etc.) to prevent them from cannibalizing the homepage's search engine ranking.
📈Translation Patches: Restored missing translation keys in Hindi and Arabic (BlogData, ContactPage) and added English fallbacks for un-translated strings to prevent UI breakage.
🐛Language Switcher Fix: Upgraded the language switcher to use native hard navigation for the default English locale, ensuring reliable routing without stale cache conflicts.

✨Global UI Localization: Fully localized author boxes, breadcrumbs, and hero sections for all translated blog posts in Hindi and Arabic.
🚀Smart Sitemap Generation: Implemented a dynamic Node.js sitemap generator that filters out unsupported languages to prevent 404s and redirect chains.
📈Perfect Hreflang Tags: Fixed an SEO bug where hreflang tags were injected for all 47 languages even on restricted pages like Privacy Policy. Tags are now perfectly aligned with `routeLocales.json`.
🐛Routing Bug Fix: Fixed a critical bug in the Language Switcher where navigating back to the default English locale from a prefixed locale would cause an infinite redirect loop due to stale `NEXT_LOCALE` cookies.
