Ok can anyone tell me if simple things matter here : e.g.(singular/plural) 1) --> 'articles' instead of 'article', 'cabbies' instead of 'cabbie',etc...?? e.g. (uppercase/lowercase) 2) --> is there a difference during search queries in uppercase and lowercase letters which are spelled the same. Like 'Search Engine Optimization' instead of 'search engine optimization'... Does this matter?? If i target a keyword 'search engine optimization' and my page title says 'Search Engine Optimization'..would it be taken into consideration and not counted?? Please rply if you are pretty sure. Am quite confused already. Thanks.
Here is a nice, quick explanation of how Google handles uppercase/lowercase searches. They always interpret searches in lowercase letters, even if you capitalize. http://www.labnol.org/internet/search/case-sensitive-google-search/6279/
Hey Tara, thxs for the info, However, I don't think it will not give more difference, however, He is talking about singular and plural, So, the google search results are vary for both. Based on google, you can choose highly queried keyword with the help of google/addurl & optimized as per it
dear, this question is really interesting question you asked. see in plurals/singular its really gonna make a big difference.if you use any tool then you can experiment with any of your keywords for singular/plural thing. while for capital letters don't make any difference.
Yeah i get that the results vary for singular and plural, but if i have a keyword say 'xyzs' having 5000 searches per month and 'xyz' having 7000 searches per month and both are similar words (like articles and article) with sensible grammatical extensions, can i target backlinking using 'xyzs' as my keyword and expect to see my site in the SERP(probably closer, say both on the first page) for both 'xyz' and 'xyzs'??
Use max plural keywords which give good result in singular if the difference is only "s". Otherwise it differs a lot. i.e. courses (course). Whenever the word or spelling is different, it makes lot of difference. Also you just cannot use keyword search engine optimization as its a bad keyword for nearly all search engines.

capital letter don't make any difference in search results. Singular and plural makes a lot of difference. You can try it on your own too. Just pick a keyword and search in google.com You will get a clearer answer.
Google ranks the singular and plural of nouns, different tenses and conjugations of verbs, etc. differently. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure this out. Simply pick a noun. Then search for the singular version of the noun in one browser... Search for the plural version of the noun in another browser. Compare the results... Are they the same? NO! If you're trying to rank for the singular version then focus your <title>, <h1>, <h2>s, content, link text of links pointing to the page, etc. on the singular version... But you should ALSO throw in some plural versions of the noun... maybe in an <h2>, some in the content, and even in some of the link text used to link to the page. It looks more natural AND having occurences of the plural appear in content and links will still help you rank for the singular... only not as much as having the singular version would.
Search for the term copy paste courses and copy paste course You will find my site on first two places. Although in "copy paste courses" term, there is no pural keyword in the contents. Its singular. So what I said is correct. This is specifically done on my site. You may be speaking in general. But if you decide a keyword and use pural if there is only difference of "s", then you can get the same results as I got it above.
