For example, I wanted to count the number of web pages that used the phrase "enterprise integration pattern" and the word 'sql'.
But when I type just "enterprise integration pattern" by itself, I get 114,000 hits. When I add another word, the number should decrease. But the following combination gets 137,000 hits:
"enterprise integration pattern" sql
The following combination gets 274,000 hits:
"enterprise integration pattern" java
And the following gets 25,900,000 hits:
"enterprise integration pattern" java sql
I get the same numbers with a one-line search or with their so-called advanced search.
Does anybody know how to bypass the Google heuristics and force it to use a simple regular expression for searching?
