Loan search content foundations

Problem
Policy loans were one of clients' most-searched topics, but almost no one clicked a result. Search could match a keyword; it couldn't understand intent.
What I did
Turned a one-domain fix into a reusable foundation: a result-type taxonomy for the whole site, plus a controlled vocabulary and concept model for loans as the pilot.
What changed
My content model became engineering's spec for the new search, and the framework is ready for the next domains.
12/12 participants completed search with zero errors in pre-launch testing
