Results ordering for "Configuration" keyword

[rsvoboda]

Results ordering for "Configuration" keyword should be imho improved.

I expected https://quarkus.io/guides/config and https://quarkus.io/guides/config-reference to be on the first two places, but they are on the 4th and 6th place. The guide I would expect on the first place is the one on the sixth place.

Here is the screenshot for https://quarkus.io/guides/#q=Configuration

I get the same result for https://quarkus.io/guides/#q=Configuring search.

I think this is similar to #40.

What we have now is scoring, based on the frequency and number of tokens in a document. It is a reflection of how well a document matches a query, using an objective formula.

What you are after is something that takes into account the relative (and subjective) "importance" of a document. You want "first-class" guides to appear first, even if they don't score quite as well as lower-class guides.

In #40 as well as here, I think the answer is adding a rank to guides and taking it into account when scoring, i.e. something like #12.
