What is Taxonomy?

Taxonomy is a method for categorizing and organizing content to solve business problems. It can help your organization:

• Improve search
• Increase eCommerce revenue
• Streamline enterprise content management
• Promote content re-use
• Improve workflow
• Enable content syndication

Taxonomy provides a controlled vocabulary for metadata attributes and specifies relationships between terms in the controlled vocabulary, from simple relationships to more specific and complex ones. In terms of Web sites and portals, a site�s taxonomy is the way it organizes data into categories and subcategories.
