Analysis and conclusion

I wonder why RMP returns Jean Varghese as the second search result, instead of the first. Most websites rank search results by relevance. RMP seems not to be doing so. Maybe it would be a good idea for me to contact them.

I've written an email to ask RMP support about the wonky search-results ordering.
