Answer 1

I have done this before which is improved search results. Try this -

Step 1 : Go to admin -> Stores -> Click on "Product" (Under Attributes).

Step 2 : Filter searchable attributes from Grid.

Step 3 : Make searchable "No" which product attribute value key you don't want to see in search. Like - Description .

Step 4 : Re-index and clear cache from admin.

That's All.

Answer 2

There are two main routes you can take to improve the Magento search results:

1. re-configure the built-in Magento search engine (please check this blog) OR
2. use an external SaaS solution to power your search results.

I personally can recommend taking the 2nd option for better results both in terms of the latency and ease of use. I can recommend our very own InstantSearch+ for Magento Extension (https://www.instantsearchplus.com/instantsearchplus-autocomplete-magento) but there are other options as well.

Use ElastcSuite which is quite relevant out of the box and very tunable : https://github.com/Smile-SA/elasticsuite It's free and open source.
