I have been quietly enabling image search since before Google Images existed. Keywording well is interpretive work requiring genuine cultural literacy, not just taxonomic skill. I understand both the soul of visual content and the mechanics of search architecture. With 28 years of experience developing vocabularies and keyword strategies, my services ensure records will be found.

A strong keyword strategy includes a hierarchy with appropriate synonyms combined with accurate descriptive terms and concepts consistently applied.

I have a been assigning effective vocabularies to a diverse range of collections since 1998 to ensure accurate results with lasting value; I have the experience and expertise to bring keyword strategies to life.

I review, simplify and improve on existing search-terms to optimise and enhance data. I ensure keywords are relevant and assets are found.

Without a clear structure and approach to your keywords, valuable information can easily be over-looked. Effective keywords preserve the integrity of records and offer insight to your collection. A decision to dedicate time and resources to the development of a strong keyword strategy transforms your collection into a meaningful source of knowledge, making it easier to discover and understand.
