content portal


Explanation:
Specious reasoning but: since 'thématique particulière' means 'focus content' (Termium), and 'content portal' gets about as many hits as 'theme portal' or 'thematic portal,' I thought I'd throw it out there (and duck).

Subject gateways

A partial solution is to start by searching something called a subject gateway (alternatively known as a "hub", "internet gateway", "subject portal" etc.). These are mini, subject orientated search engines, that index quality assessed web pages and sites on a select range of topics.

vortal


Explanation:
not sure, but this could be a vortal

Definitions of vortal on the Web:

* Is simply a portal centered around a specific issue.
www.linking101.com/articles/terms.htm

* A vortal (Vertical industry portal) is a web site that provides a gateway or portal to information relating to a particular industry, such as health care, insurance or automobiles. In other words, a vertical industry is one that is focused on a relatively narrow range of goods and services whereas a horizontal industry is one that aims to offer a wide range of goods and services. As more and more industries tend to specialize, more and more industries are said to be vertical. Go to top of page
www.alco.org/help/help090.html

* Vertical portal. A portal that offers services / information, specialising in only one particular area. Eg golf, knitting, poodles.
www.auridian.com/glossary/HTML/V.htm

* A web portal is a web site that provides a starting point, a gateway, or portal, to other resources on the Internet or an intranet. Intranet portals are also known as "enterprise information portals" (EIP).

Asker: This could be just right, but can such a horrid word ever catch on? Has it already caught on without me noticing?
