In order to identify how public reacts on their products, media monitoring is being applied by companies. Generally, a company executes media monitoring by assigning someone as media monitor who is being tasked to find and summarize news that are found on public online medias. Therefore, a searching tool that can check directly whether the news contains correlated contents or not is needed. The main purpose of this research is to create an application that retrieve IT products related news from various Indonesian online media by using web crawler Google Non-API and Google Custom Search API. By using regular expressions, this application detect whether the retrieved news contain correlated keywords or not. This research also serves its purpose as a comparator between web crawler Google Non-API and Google Custom Search API which compare few aspects such as running time, accuracy, and the search results. The test results of news searching using web crawler Google Non-API and Google Custom Search API show that news searching using Google Custom Search API is faster than using web crawler Google Non-API. News searching using web crawler Google Non-API has a chance to be blocked by Google, but not for Google Custom Search API.
