Test stop word relevance
You can take advantage of usage analytics reports to evaluate if a term should be added as a stop word. You can look for keywords with the lowest Relevance Index metric to identify potential stop word candidates.
Test the relevance of your stop words
-
On the Reports (platform-ca | platform-eu | platform-au) page, click the Search Relevance explorer, and then click Open in the Action bar.
-
In the Search Relevance explorer:
-
Sort the report on increasing Relevance Index metric values.
-
Review the keywords with the lowest Relevance Index metric values while looking for stop words.

When a keyword Relevance Index metric value is below

Consider adding it to a Stop Words rule (see Manage stop word rules).
