How can I improve my ranking in relevant search filters despite keyword optimization in titles?

I carefully incorporated relevant search query keywords into both my title and subtitle, but when I first searched for that keyword, my result didn’t appear on the first page. However, after switching to the latest courses filter, my result ranked at the top. Do you have any suggestions for improving my ranking in the relevant filter?

    Hi @Raghunadh Thanks for your question! Search rankings are based on a number of factors, some of which include relevance (based on the keywords in the title/subtitle), the number of course reviews and the quality of the reviews themselves. The student review metric which is used to calculate quality is the average rating. For more information on the ratings metric, please click here.

    As the course receives more positive ratings then its ranking will improve. Adding new terms to the course title or subtitle, which you believe students may search for, can also improve its searchability.

    I hope this helps!
