Guidelines to maximize the relevant retreve documents ?

Good morning,

When I use your models, I typically phrase my input as a question related to what I’m looking for.

I’m wondering if there are any best practices or guidelines on how to structure my question or prompt to maximize the relevance of the retrieved documents. Should it always be a question?

For example, would simply entering a few keywords that are more likely to appear in the relevant paragraph improve the results? Or phrase it as a normal sentence and not a question ?

For example, if we have a guideline for an electric device, should the prompt be:
"What should I do to power it up?"
or simply "Power up the device"

Which approach is better for retrieving the most relevant information?

Once more are just a bunch of keywords better/part of sentences for retrieval ?
