Did you enter anything into the search box?

the word "arch" maybe?

more options

It's because the word "arch" is part of the keyword "search" So it will display every search you made on google bing or whatever search engine you used because they use the word "search" on their links

so how do i restrict it to this exact phrase to get some readable results from it?

plus there should also be another option to search by "domain name + a certain word" to get the results from only that domain that you enter into the domain box... just to filter out all of the useless *rap that you are not looking for...
