Try this In Webview Method :

     - (BOOL) webView: (UIWebView *) webView shouldStartLoadWithRequest: (NSURLRequest *) request navigationType: (UIWebViewNavigationType) navigationType{
             NSURL *url = request.URL;
             NSLog(@"%@", url.absoluteString);
            NSURL *url = request.URL;
            NSLog(@"%@", url.absoluteString);
            if ([url.host containsString:@"www.google.co.in"])
            {
               nslog(@"Google")
            }else{
            }
}
