How to Search Only the Body Text of Pages in Google

Ignore Links, Titles, and URLs

By Marziah Karch, About.com

Occasionally you might want to restrict your searches to only the text of Web sites and ignore all the links, titles, and URLs.

This might be useful if you wanted to find Web pages that were talking about other Web sites. The command to search only the body text is intext: To find Web pages talking about Google, for example, you could search for:

intext:review google.com

You can also use the variation allintext: Allintext searches for all of the specified words in the body text, but it can't be combined with other commands.
