Multiplication... Kinda a weird question. I need the best!?

I always thought multiplying things will give you a bigger product.. However when fractions get into the problem, the product seems to go down... Why is that? Also the dictionary defined multiplication as to make many or manifold; increase the number, quantity, etc., of. But if i multiply a 1/2 and another 1/2 i get 1/4? Which is smaller than both factors? Can anyone explain this?
