Integration of Web Information Architecture Taxonomy and Web Metrics Taxonomy

摘要

Mechanisms are provided for integration of Web information architecture taxonomy and Web metrics taxonomy. When the author creates source content, the mechanism classifies the content using a rich taxonomy. The mechanism also adds unique identifiers into the source content pages as tags. The mechanism may then transform the source content into Web content that contains the identifiers in the tags. When users view the Web content, the tags generate usage data, which contain the identifiers. A Web metrics mechanism generates a Web metrics report from the usage data. The page tags are the identifiers from the source content. The Web metrics report associates each page of Web content with the rich taxonomy available in the source content.

1. A method, in a data processing system, for integrating content taxonomy and Web metrics taxonomy, the method comprising:
developing source content using a source content taxonomy, using a content authoring service, and using a content architecture standard; storing the source content in source content storage; assigning one or more unique identifiers to the source content based on the source content taxonomy; generating Web content, wherein the Web content contains hyperlinks to the source content; inserting the one or more unique identifiers into corresponding hyperlinks in the Web content; storing the Web content in Web content storage; responsive to a user viewing from a Web server a page of Web content containing a given tag having a given unique identifier within the one or more unique identifiers, generating Web usage data recording the viewing of the page of Web content, wherein the given tag contains a reference to given item of content in the source content, wherein the reference to the given item of content comprises a uniform resource locator, and wherein inserting the one or more unique identifiers comprises inserting the given unique identifier into the uniform resource locator referencing the given item of content; and generating a Web metrics report based on the Web usage data in the Web metrics taxonomy, wherein the Web metrics report maps the viewing of the page of Web content to the source content taxonomy based on the given unique identifier.
