Capitalizing letters In Keywords?

    I have a question for all you guys out there! When it comes to building links and all that I am pretty good at it and know what to do. Just today it crossed my mind though.... If you are trying to work on a keyword such as: wood guitars.... Would it be a different keyword if I were to type something like: woOd Guitars... Does capitalizing a letter change anything?

    I agree capital letters doesn't change the anchor text relevance.

    Even capitalizing is not make a different, but if someone has change setting to case sensitive enabled and type exact "woOd Guitars" (rarely possible anyhow) then this could make a different. Just an example to see the possible way they could effect. But do not worry, I do not think this kind of search will going to happen.

    Google doesn't make things different whenever searchers made different capitalization with the words because there are natural words that people usually type with some caps like names, places, etc..

    I think capital letter was still the same text from others. There's no effect on the ranking.

    With the search engines I'm pretty sure searches are case-insensitive, so whether you type in 'wOOd guitars" or "WoOD GuitaRs" or "WOOd gUITars" it shouldn't make any difference in the search results displayed

    I agreed here. In my experience, keywords are not case sensitive. Cheers.

    from everything I have read on the subject, keywords are indeed not case sensitive.

    I am not sure but I think, its the same thing. Even if its in capital letters or in lower cases, it doesnot affect the search results.

    I think captilizing the keyword doesn't affect the page ranking. As these keywords are not case sensitive.

    I don't think so unless you add extra characters at the end of the word or in front of the word

    It'll be different in the sense that if users see it they'll notice the difference, but Google's search algorithms don't care either way and don't give or take away any importance.

    It doesn't make a difference. Now, if the keywords are in bold if would.
