Maintaining your taxonomy is crucial to keep it effective and relevant. Here’s how to do it:

• Regular reviews: Periodically review your taxonomy to ensure it remains up-to-date. This involves checking if the categories and terms still align with your content and user needs.^[1]
• User feedback: Collect and analyze feedback from users. Pay attention to any difficulties they face in finding information, as this might indicate a need for adjustments.
• Analyze search data: Monitor search logs to see if users’ search terms match your taxonomy. Identify common searches that yield poor results and adjust the taxonomy accordingly.
• Update content: As new content is added or old content is removed, update the taxonomy labels and metadata to reflect these changes. This ensures that all content remains accurately categorized.
