Description
Describe the Bug
When I use the search on docs.qmk.fm, the search results do not obey any sort of logical (to me) ordering. As a simple example: If I enter "layers" as the search query, the doc page for the layers feature (feature_layers) is only the ninth search result.
I think part of the problem is that the search results point to sections, not pages. I can sort of see the benefit of this, but it runs contrary to how I expect most search engines to work. It means for example that a single page with many sections referring to the query string can crowd out the search results.
I find this a strong pain point when working with QMK, helping others out with understanding QMK features, etc. I can never rely on the search to give me what I want. I have mentally gotten used to typing a search term, clicking through to the first result, and then following a trail of breadcrumbs until I get where I actually wanted to be.
