Categories

Fabrik's Categories are an important taxonomy system that helps users and third parties such as Google to determine the subject of documents. Unlike Topics, which are narrow categorizations, Categories are very broad categorizations.

On a website that covers a broad range of subjects, the following would all be considered Categories:

  • Entertainment
  • Television
  • Gaming

The broadness of Categories and Topics is narrowed on sites that cover a specific subject. On a website that only covers sports, Football and Basketball may be considered Categories, while individual players would be considered Topics

Whereas as a site that covers a broad range of current events, Football and Basketball would likely be considered Topics under the Category of Sports.

Below, we can see that Distractify's taxonomy is structured as such: Homepage > Category > Topic

Categories also have their own pages, featuring a feed of all articles assigned to that Category by users. These can be found at https://domain.com/category-slug
