Google AdWords Capitalization
There is a science to writing ads in Google AdWords to maximize your click-through-rate and ROI and using just the right amount of capitalization plays a huge part.
Tip 1: Use Capitalization in Google Ads
We have proven beyond a doubt that ads that are capitalized will almost always outperform ads that are not capitalized. They just stand out more and are far more noticeable. So, as a rule of thumb, definitely use capitalization in your ads!
Tip 2: When NOT to Use Capitalization in Google Ads

The result: The ad that did not capitalize these tiny words outperformed the ad that did by over 80%!
The above case clearly demonstrates that paying attention to the RIGHT amount of capitalization is vital and just following the tip to capitalize every word can get you into serious trouble.
