The Business Value of Taxonony

•

• 

Taxonomy is not a word that everyone can relate to.  What those of us on the inside of this story know is that the world's most powerful search experiences are powered by taxonomy and metadata.  If your business is challenged with juggling vast amounts of content on either internally or externally facing websites it is imperitive that these concepts become part of the conversation.  The information architecture experts at Earley & Associates have prepared a paper that can be used to help decision makers understand:

• • How leading companies are utilizing business taxonomy
  • The two key roles of taxonomy and why it is important to develop both
  • Six specific examples of business taxonomy in use
  • Four best practices for approaching a business taxonomy.

This whitepaper is ideal for helping to put this important but misunderstood topic into perspective.  Check it out.
