Q: Avoid SharePoint 2016 search to match URL

Question

Is there any way to not match users' keywords to pages' URL?

If users try to search using domain name, the whole site will be returned in result.

Example:

(Content of http://abc-sharepoint/text.txt)

I like to share.

Current Result:

Search Keywords: share

Search Results: 4 items found

http://abc-sharepoint/unrealted_listsordocument/...

http://abc-sharepoint/News.aspx

http://differentSite/share.aspx

http://abc-sharepoint/text.txt

Expected Result:

Search Results:1 item found

http://abc-sharepoint/text.txt

Is there anyway to configure the crawler or search web part such that SharePoint won't match users' keyword to any URLs but instead, match the pages' title / content?

Answer 1

Haven't tested this, but theoretically it could work: -Site:{SearchBoxQuery} or -Path:{SearchBoxQuery} to filter out whole URL and not just the site part.
