Ecommerce executives must oversee the creation of a shopping experience that makes it easy for the customer to find, compare, select and buy. Anything less and the customer is gone.

User expectations are much higher now. Beautiful site design is all well and good but not at the expense of user-centric search, navigation and comparison experiences.

Our team of product taxonomy design experts are the best in the business. We build the information architectures that power exceptional buying experiences for the customer, maximize order values, and help your product teams work fast and efficiently.

 

“We spent millions upgrading technology …. Looking back, I’d get the taxonomy right first.”
— Chief Marketing Officer, $8B Scientific Equipment Maker

 

Taxonomy for Product Catalogs

Clear organizing principles and customer-centric design can make your product catalog easier to search, faster to navigate, and better aligned with what buyers expect.

Product Attributes

Accurate and robust product information reduces the number of clicks needed to get to the right products and supports world class site search and SEO. They also power the kind of shopping experiences that buyers want—including filtering, comparison options, and rich product information.
