Would this be possible for my research
-
Hi i am trying to find out if it is possible for me to put a search term down and found out what companies are using this. I know you can do this with google but i am finding that it is not bringing up the right results.
What i am trying to do is, search for a search word that is being used on their content pages, so for example, if i put down the word holidays in spain, i want to find that word being used in their content and not the site being in google.
Hope this makes sense, so i am trying to find how many companies out there use a certain search phrase in their content
any help would be great

You've stated that it "doesn't bring up the right results", what is wrong about these results?
Without using Google as your 'crawler' to see what pages contain what words, there's few options left other than writing your own crawler to index the web and build a tool to query your own index.That seems like a rather resource and time intensive way to solve this problem.
Have you tried the (Google) query:
allintitle: holidays in spain

a lot of the sites that i have been going through do not have the words that i am looking at on their content pages, instead it is in the meta tag or they have removed the words. but i spent four hours yesterday going through sites and most of them did not have the words that i was looking for.

allintitle: holidays in spain
This ensure that they have the keywords in their title tag, which is a pretty strong signal that their pages will include these keywords in the content as well.

What about using the allintext: query, so that your keywords appear in the text of the page? More information at http://www.googleguide.com/advanced_operators.html#allintext
