Search results are ranked and displayed 25 sites at a time. The sites that are displayed are grouped by their category. For example, a search on golf clubs will only return sites that have both golf and clubs in the sites name and description. Sometimes the order of the search terms matters. Using phrase searching can greatly reduce the number of sites that are matched by a search.
All searches use and as the default linking operator between all of the search terms.
See the next section on using boolean operators. Terms linked by the and operator will return only those sites that match all of the search terms linked by the and operator. Terms linked by the or operator will return those sites that match any of the search terms linked by or . The search can do some limited wildcarding. Specificly, wildcard completion.
