Definition content is often needed when users search for “what is” a term. It can be used as a dictionary-type document by clearly explaining the concept in the first sentence and then organizing the outline, characteristics, and related concepts.
If there is only a definition and no context, it is difficult for readers to understand its actual use. Conversely, if the definition document is an overly long argument-type text, the clarity of the headings is reduced.
The terminology document provides headwords, English names, abbreviations, definitions, overviews, and references. Depending on the search intent, you can add examples or comparison items.
Definition content is covered in content SEO and content quality classification, and it is easy to understand its position in the document structure by reading it together with items such as the glossary page, definition block, and summary block.
