Increasing Findability in SharePoint
With SharePoint 2013 touting better-than-ever search capabilities, it’s important to remember what makes content easy to find: content organization and knowing how the search engine functions. In today’s SPTechCon Boston session at 11:00AM, I’ll provide my secret playbook for a top-notch collaboration experience and maximum findability.
We’ll cover my five-step playbook, including:
- Step 1: Fix Contribution
- Folders and default properties – the rules you MUST follow
- Different views (UX) for contributors and consumers
- Step 2: Fix Consumption #1 (Browsing and Navigation)
- Different views (UX) for contributors and consumers (again!)
- Configure navigation
- Step 3: Fix Consumption #2 (Search)
- Encourage better Titles
- Definitions, best bets
- Step 4: Align Taxonomy
- The seven places to configure things in SharePoint 2010 (you don’t have to do them all)
- Step 5: Integrate Social
- Enable social tagging promotion and tag feeds
