I remember reading about a year ago that for SEO purposes, Google prefers hyphens to camel case for URLs.

Subject: [WebAIM] Should URLs be in camel case like hash tags?

I know the best practice with hash tags, but cannot find anything useful on
whether or not to camel case URLs for a11y.



Incidentally, is there a WCAG to support camel case hash tags?



Thanks in anticipation.



Cheers
