Why are "exact match" keyword results displayed so far down the list of results?
I have posted about this before, and I will likely post again until the problem is fixed. Why does IMDb choose not to display "exact match" keyword results as the first result on the list? I can't imagine why IMDb would want to display the exact result that people are searching for so far down the list of results. Here is a search where the exact match is not listed until result #7: https://www.imdb.com/find/?s=kw&q=%22waking%20up%20covered%20in%20blood%22 Search "waking up covered in blood" Keywords Exact matches covered-in-blood (882 titles) waking-up-in-strange-surroundings (30 titles) waking-up-in-a-hospital (42 titles) waking-up-alone-in-bed (11 titles) waking-up-in-a-strange-bed (13 titles) waking-up-in-the-middle-of-the-night (11 titles) waking-up-covered-in-blood (6 titles) waking-up-in-hospital (9 titles) waking-up-in-prison (1 title) waking-up-in-the-morgue (3 titles) waking-up-in-a-cemetary (1 title) waking-up-in-the-park (1 title) waking-up-in-an-ambulance (1 title) waking-up-in-the-future (5 titles) waking-up-in-a-hotel (1 title) waking-up-in-a-coffin (6 titles) waking-up-in-a-bathtub (3 titles) waking-up-in-a-cold-sweat (1 title) waking-up-in-someone-else's-body (2 titles) waking-up-in-a-foreign-country (2 titles) waking-up-in-a-pile-of-garbage (1 title) child-covered-in-blood (7 titles) room-covered-in-blood (5 titles) hand-covered-in-blood (7 titles) character-covered-in-blood (6 titles)

Here is another example. For this one, the exact match doesn't appear on the list until result #9. The exact match should always be listed first. Search "man chases a woman" Keywords Exact matches woman-slaps-a-man (1054 titles) woman-hits-a-man (601 titles) man-punches-a-woman (523 titles) man-slaps-a-woman (770 titles) woman-fights-a-man (628 titles) man-hits-a-woman (737 titles) woman-murders-a-man (676 titles) woman-punches-a-man (502 titles) man-chases-a-woman (28 titles) man-carries-a-woman (413 titles) woman-kills-a-man (155 titles) woman-shoots-a-man (137 titles) man-kills-a-woman (168 titles) man-murders-a-woman (444 titles) man-undresses-a-woman (170 titles) woman-dresses-as-a-man (254 titles) man-kisses-a-woman's-hand (248 titles) man-disguised-as-a-woman (220 titles) woman-undresses-for-a-man (209 titles) woman-disguised-as-a-man (105 titles) man-dresses-as-a-woman (477 titles) man-and-woman-share-a-bed (257 titles) man-cums-in-a-woman's-mouth (128 titles) man-and-woman-in-a-bed (234 titles) man-cums-on-a-woman's-face (141 titles)

@keyword_expert Thanks again for the problem report. We now have a ticket for this enhancement in the queue for the search team. It will not be quick as there are some larger search priorities to handle first, but the team will get to it eventually.
