Search result order for different language
Hi,
I have SharePoint 2013 sites with multiple language support English and Swedish. When i search a query for user with different language the order of the results in which it is displayed changes.
e.g. If I search "New Test" for a user who has English as language in SharePoint result.
"https://mysites.newsite.com/newTest" is displayed at the top but for the user who has Swedish as language in SharePoint same result for same query "New Test" is displayed on second page or at the bottom of the page.
Could you please explain this?
Thank in advance
Regards,
Robert

Hi Robert,
SharePoint search engine also ranks search results based on "Document Location (URL Depth)", "File Type", "Language", "Click Distance" and other components.
The language will affect the results order.
You can check the following articles mentioned the language affection in SharePoint 2013 ranking models. The articles would help you understand how the rank works

Hi Ashot,
Thank you for response.
Actually the issue that we have is as follows
We have a publishing page with the Title of the page as "WeeklyReoprt" for both English and Swedish languages. When we search for the word "WeeklyReport" with English as my default language, the exact page is displayed as the first ranked result (Since the title matches exactly).
With Swedish as my default language, if I search for the text "WeeklyReport", the same page with exactly matching title is displayed as the 8th or 9th ranked result. Our doubt is that if the same word matches the title exactly, why the results ranks have changed in Swedish language.
No Ranking model is selected in our case but the ranking of an exactly matching text changes with language and users find it difficult.
We would like to have the same matching search result at least to be shown at the top.
Kindly suggest..
Regards,
Robert
