I want to make an "In app search engine" but dont know how

Hello guys,well as a programming noob I like to make some useful programs to use on my every day tasks.I started a basic programming course this year and since then I'm using c++ for everything,but I faced a problem.I wnated to catalog my magazines with a simple program,where I create a struct that contains things like: The title,the year, the month and some tags so I could search for them later.The problem Is that I have no idea on how to make this searching mechanism to find the tags,any idea?Thanks guys =)
The simplest thing you can do is to take each word from the search and find matching words in the information you are searching within. More matches would mean more relevance. It's slow and doesn't work very well, but it is simple and a good start.

When you start making money you can take advantage of Google's Compute Engine and use Google's own search algorithms on your data stored in the cloud.
