Tagging Strategy

2024-01-22

Why

A “tag” is a keyword or label assigned to a post to categories it and make it easier to organise and search for. Tags help in classifying content based on its subject matter or key topics. Therefore, sharing my tagging strategy will help you navigate this blog and fully utilise its contents.

How

I am currently use two levels of tagging:

  • Category tags: Tags that start with “category_”. For example: category_operating_system. This type of tag is the main tag, general topic and reason why the post was created. Each post only have one category tag.
  • Topic tags: Tags that start with “topic_”. For exampe: topic_windows, topic_c++. This type of tag is the subject matter or key topic included in a post. Each post can contains multiple topic tags to link with other posts.

Where

You can find all Tags on the navigation menu.
