Generating the Common Answers List

Common Answers will derive directly from metrics on web queries in the following areas:

  • Top queries on AboutUs - Derived from an internal list
  • Top Web Queries - Derived from SearchEngineGuide.com

These lists will be updated weekly at ContentNeeded and culled to eliminate redundancy (pages already in existence on the site). This will be done by hand for the time being, but should be automated in the future (dev. priority coming once we've solidified the work flow of the system).
