Domain Names Are Not Case Sensitive (and why a marketer should care)

Posted by ophir on September 24th, 2009

Just a quick tip for all you Internet Marketers out there:

Domain names are not case sensitive.

Why should you care?

Which of the following is easier to read (and remember)?

www.primeoutlets.com or www.PrimeOutlets.com

so … it makes sense to use a mixture of upper and lower case letters when you’re dealing with multi word domain names.

    Yeah,but i also take into consideration how people search.Will they make the first letter capitalize?or just leave everything in lower case?

    It doesn’t matter how people search. Search engines don’t care about upper or lower case.
