Only count matches once

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hello,

I've tried a few different analyzers thinking that the stop words were
causing the results to be poor, but now it seems that it's a result of the
same token being matched multiple times, being given more weight.

For example a search for "this is the end", returns the following results:

  1. TutsPlus - End To End Analytics
  2. This Is The End (2013) Movie HD

As you can see, TutsPlus is pretty unrelated to what a user would be
searching for. I guess it's just because 'End' is found twice.

Is there anyway to only give weight to a single instance of a term or could
you recommend what I should look at to provide a more relevant result?
Really, the TutsPlus should not even be returned, or maybe way down the
line.

Thank you!

Can you give the query you used?

You could use a boost query or a rescore to match the phrase the user searched.

I'm just using a standard query, I've tried messing filters and match, but
nothing that I played with seemed to get it...

{
"query": {
"name" : "this is the end"
}
}
