Reader search and related reading
The search box on your blog, what it searches, and how related articles are chosen.
On this page
Two features help a reader who arrived on one article find the next one.
Reader search
Your blog carries its own search over your published posts: titles, content and taxonomy. It runs on your site, against your content, with no external search service involved.
What readers search for is recorded, which is unusually useful data: it is your audience telling you, in their own words, what they expected you to have written. See reader feedback and site search.
Related reading
At the end of an article, related posts are chosen from what you have published, using taxonomy and topical proximity rather than recency alone.
Categories and tags
Both features lean on your taxonomy, which is another reason to keep it small and meaningful. See categories and tags.
