Remember to 301 Redirect If You Own Your Domain Typos

Filed Under Customer Experience |

I typed in facebooks.com this morning by accident. Got a dead page. So I looked to see if it was registered and sure enough it was. I’m completely amazed they aren’t 301 redirecting the typos that they own for user experience and other purposes!

      There must be a reason. Seems too obvious for there not to be a redirect here. Why then? My first guess would be to enforce branding and the second, legal.
