Do you pay attention to online advertising?

Do you pay attention to spelling/grammar errors in advertising?

  • I can't stand seeing signs, especially professionally-made signs, that have spelling, grammar, or punctuation errors in them. The most common errors are in the use of apostrophes. ...show more

  • Answer:

    I think spelling and grammar are very important in advertising. The print Ads, brochures and fliers a business puts out is the image the business projects. A sloppy Ad tells me it's a poorly run business with little attention to detail. With computers and spell check, if a business does its own promotion, there is no excuse for grammar mistakes. If they pay to have someone produce its work, they should proof read it before accepting it and paying for the service.

Yes, it matters to me It shows that whomever is making up these signs cannot use the spell check or isn't educated well enough to know how to spell. I am just a stickler for that stuff anyways. Most people probably either spell poorly themselves so they don't realize the error, or they just don't care.

Yeah it gets on my nerves too, but some advertisers spell words wrong on purpose to get your attention and keep it. It worked.

I suck at spelling/grammar so it dose not bother me at all lol, but if it is someones job to make signs they should not make mistakes like that. It is not done intentionally
