The Glom module ranks single-field matches ahead of cross-field matches and also ahead of records that do not contain the search term at all. This module serves as a useful tie-breaker function in combination with the Maxfield module. It is only useful with record search operations. If you want a strategy that ranks single-field matches first, cross-field matches second, and no matches third, then use the Glom module followed by the Nterms module.

Glom treats all matches the same, whether or not they are due to query expansion.
