 I tried searching plugins with the keyword 'string' but the first result
 it showed was w3 total cache and plugins having 'string' in the title came
 at fourth and fifth place. Same with the 'buddypress', initial two results
 were fine but then MailChimp came and then other plugins with 'buddypress'
 in their title. Can we modify the search algorithm in a way so that it
 returns results with the title first and then other things? I think that
 looks more relevant as per the user's perspective.
