Writing about other companies

As a rule, we honour any name/spelling/punctuation a company has chosen for itself and its products (even those poor, tasteless souls who use camelCase).

Go by whatever is on their website. Here are a few that come up regularly:

  • Shopify

  • BigCommerce (formerly Bigcommerce)

  • WooCommerce

  • Mailchimp (formerly MailChimp)

  • YouTube

  • iPhone, iPad, iMac

  • eBay

  • Airbnb

  • GoPro

Don't italicize the names of companies and products.

Refer to a company or product as it not they.
