Does it matter if it is capital letter in my article?

    I tested to search for one of my article.
    I first tried to search for keyword "earn extra money part time" and my article didn't appear on the first search page.

    But when I search for "Earn Extra Money Part Time" then it was on the first place on the first search site.

    I have never know this.

    If you are enclosing your search phrase in quotes it is telling the search that the results must show only exactly as written. (With Caps)

    Google ranks lower case and upper case identically... even when they are in quotes. I opened 2 copies of IE... searched in one browser for "earn extra money part time" and in the other browser for "Earn Extra Money Part Time". I got the EXACT same results.

    If your seeing differences, it has absolutely nothing to do with case... It likely has to do with personalization. Make sure you are logged out of your Google account .

    I don't enclose my keyword with quotes.

    I just tried again
    Earn Extra Money Part Time (my article appears on the top)
    earn extra money part time ( appears number 8 in the first page)
