Documents are weighted and assigned stars based on an algorithm using the heading, keyword and title factors as well as content inside a HTML document.

More stars signify the document has more relevance to the search request.
The document title is also a weighting factor and is how the document is linked in the search return results. The following code will allow you to add your own search box to your page.
