I use DNDBeyond mostly for its search capability. I usually just need access to a spell or a monster or some tidbit of information.
But, usually, the first 2-3 results are, best case, from the books or, worst case, nothing resembling what I want. Can search weigh options in favour of specific pages and not books and/or weigh options towards terms that appear in the title? Or, at least, can we have settings to determine that?
I own every book so weighing by books doesn't help.
And going for the monster or spell search is more clicks when I can just call on one search through a keyword in the browser. It just needs to be improved for context.

Are you using the global search or specific spell/monster listings?
For looking up spells and monsters the specific search is better than global.
For compendium stuff I agree global search is less than ideal. Weight for owned books is a must.
