This document discusses how WordPress determines what content is indexed and searchable on a website. It explains that WordPress indexes the title, content body, titles of internally linked posts, categories, tags, and custom taxonomies of posts. The title is weighted most heavily at 80 while categories are weighted at 20. Internal links, HTML tags, shortcodes, and special characters are cleaned up. Common stop words are also removed.
