Capitalize My Title

The website “Capitalize My Title” is an easy to use online title capitalization tool. Just enter the title in lower case, and it will automatically change the case for you based on different rules such as the Chicago Manual Of Style Guidelines, APA/MLA Style Guide, and the AP Style Guide. The website also includes handy links to the different rules for the style guides.

One of those handy tools when you’re struggling with what a correct case for a heading or title is, for example when writing a blog post or a résumé.

Of course there is, pardon the pun, a case to be made for learning the rules. This so one does not have to rely on a tool. However in case one forgets, it is handy to check the correctness of the heading or title.

Now if there was only something that could correct all my writing… Untill then this student of literature will just keep monkeying around with the typing machine untill it writes a Shakespearian novel some day. Bonus points if you know where that reference comes from. Tip: life is a journey not a destination.

For the writing nerds: AP title case was used for this blog post.
