How to make the category names searchable?

If I have a category called "Apples" with a bunch of ads related to apples, but none of which specifically mention the word apples, the search will not return any results from this category for the query "apples".

I'd like searches for "apples" to return results from the category "Apples" even if none of the ads in this category specifically mention this term.

How could this be done?

Re: How to make the category names searchable?

The search used in ClassiPress is the basic WordPress default search with a few advanced options. If you add tags to your ads with keywords like apples, then it should return in the search. That's part of the reason tags are there.
