Overview: I want to manage promoted results programatically. PowerShell is a good candidate for automating the creation of "Promoted Results" previously/also known as "Search Best Bets".

- On the Site Collection, go Site Settings > Search Query Rules
- On the page select "All Sources" for the qu "For what context do you want to configure rules?"
- And select "Promoted Results Contains", you can add Promoted Results/Best Bets thru the UI at this point.
Or Open PromoteResults.ps1 and edit the Powershell to create the promoted results for you, comment out the DeletePromoteResults, as it is used to roll out the changes.
Run PromoteReults.ps1.
Search for the term "Messi" and you will see the promoted result.
