Poor search result relevance

For the past few weeks, Adobe Stock search results are returning images not relavant to the search term. For example, when I search 'pen', the results only show 1 image of a pen, all the other images are of completely irrelevant images such as product stages. When I search "woman on beach" the first image when I sort by relevance is an image of woman in a corporate setting, no beach in sight.

Thinking about changing image banks as we are losing too much time with search lack of relevance.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, Natalie. I've passed this on to our product management.
Meanwhile, searching for "Pen" seems working for me and it gives enough results. Can you make sure there is no filter applied?  Searching for "Women on beach", try quotation marks around some of your words. You will see the results more accurate.

@EvilBug1 ,

 

Do you have a suggestion to improve the relevance of the search results?

"Woman on a beach" gave me pretty much the same results you received, but "pen" resulted in all kinds of pens, not just one.
