title: Elastic Search and Search Ranking Models
body: <p>I am new to Elastic Search. I would like to know if the following steps are how typically people use ES to build a search engine.</p>
  <ol>
  <li>Use Elastic Search to get a list of qualified documents/results based on a user's input.</li>
  <li>Build and use a search ranking model to sort this list.</li>
  <li>Use this sorted list as the output of the search engine to the user.</li>
  </ol>
