They are used in two ways.
They are used to indicate likes and dislikes (dog>cat: I like dogs more than cats or dogs are better than cats. dog>: I like dogs. dog<: I dislike dogs) The more signs there are, the stronger the level of like or dislike.
They are also used (like arrows or highlighting) as a means of drawing attention to something.
