Tagging content

By Topic

The legal issues taxonomy:

  • is used to tag legal content at a granular legal issue

  • the top 2 levels are used as navigation within the website

The navigational IA: * Has terms created * All legal content has been updated to use this as its primary navigational terms

Best practices

  • Tag the content to the best category you can find. One is the goal - only tag multiple categories if the content truly fits both places.

  • If you tag a piece of content to a taxonomy tag that starts with “another” or “other,” do not tag that piece of content to any other taxonomy tags

By user role

We can also tag legal content by user role, using the taxonomy used for online intake. Content should be tagged to a user role when:

  • The content is specifically written for that audience OR

  • the content is especially relevant to that audience (more so than the general website visitor population)
