    Hi,

    I was looking at my keyword rankings today and I've found out that for "gratis ftp software" (free ftp software) I am ranking 20, but for "gratis FTP software" I am not even in top 100.

    I think this is strange because the title of my page is "gratis FTP software", and while searching for "gratis ftp software" the whole title is bold.

    It also happens to some of my keywords, but the difference in rankings is only from 1 - 2 not like yours :(

    Hi Friend

    there is not a issue with "gratis FTP software" or gratis ftp software. even you can try with "GRATIS FTP SOFTWARE"

    You can search with any types but results will come same in all the search engines.

    thanks
    John

    there is a difference but only for certain words. for most words the results will be the same, but a some keywords give different results.
    for example type in "truxedo" and then "truXedo"
    the first is how most would type it, the second is how the manufacturer of the product spells it. notice the SERPs....

    There's no difference, really. In fact, this very same topic was brought up here not too long ago. I don't have the time to go digging through the threads, but everyone pretty much realized that there was no difference between uppercase and lower-case letters.

    Google is free text se and treat both caps and small letters as same.
    Still you may find little bit difference,
    if search for best online casino uk
    your website comes on 4th pos.
    But when you type the same in caps letters,
    Google may give priority to that site which has use exactly the same word in caps, so your result might be go to the 7th pos.
    It's the excellency and quality of Google.
    We are not much more expert than it.
