It doesn't sound ideal that it's so phrasing dependant - 5th on a list of 9 videos is poor if you're searching without knowing which video you're looking for and without knowing the best search phrase to use - unless those 4 above it actually also answer the same thing?
Is it random luck which phrases work best, or is it in a way that a frequent user of the service could learn the good and bad ways to structure a query (and/or can it be tweaked so that all queries work well)?

- yoeven 3y agoTechnically the other videos do talk about the above query, just that not enough videos of it have been indexed to produce a better result. While yes promoting/querying tends work better in questions based on how its built, I've been exploring more ways by mixing full text fuzzy search along with the current method to allow for broader queries as well :)
