American Spelling Issues, Part 2

by admin on February 26, 2010

Oxford DictionaryWell I guess this one is a little less dramatic than having our Google.co.uk search results forced into American spellings. (Hobo Web post on that here, Online Sales rant here and our post on when they rolled it back).

We decided to list our site on business.com (listing page here). Seems they have ever so helpfully decided to change our listing title from optimiSation to optimiZation – even although the correct version is in our url.

We are a UK Company, we offer optimisation, not optimization. I don’t think its fair for someone else to change the spelling for us.

Maybe its just an oversight. If someone from business.com sees this and wants to clarify whether this is policy or not, I will be happy to update with their thoughts.
