Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thank you for taking the time to respond. Makes a lot of sense, I appreciate it.

Hello,

I'm developing a website for a law firm, which offers a variety of services.

The site will also feature a blog, which would have similarly-named topics. As is customary, these topics were taxonomies.

But I want the articles to enhance the value of the service pages themselves and because the taxonomy url /category/divorce has no relationship to the actual service page url /practice-areas/divorce, I'm worried that if anything, a redundantly-titled taxonomy url would dilute the value of the service page it's related to.

Sure, I could show some of the related posts on the service page but if I wanted to view more, I'm suddenly bounced over to a taxonomy page which is stealing thunder away from the more important service page.

So I did away with these taxonomies all together, and posts are associatable with pages directly with a custom db table.

And now if I visit the blog page, instead of a list of category terms, it would technically be a list of the service pages and so if a visitor clicks on a topic they are directed to /practice-areas/divorce/resources (the subpages are created dynamically) and the posts are shown there.

I'll have to use custom breadcrumbs to make it all work. Just wondering if you guys had any thoughts on this. Really appreciate any you might have and thanks for reading
