Another one of the most commonly misspelled words among Forbes 500 websites, “environment” is misspelled below on the same page as the letter from the CEO, damaging both the credibility of the company as well as the man in charge.

Office Max is the second largest office supplies retailer in the United States. They sell any and every office utensil you could possibly think of, from pens and pencils to file cabinets to computers and printers. Luckily, they also sell dictionaries galore: pocket dictionaries, electronic dictionaries, international dictionaries, Spanish dictionaries, medical dictionaries, typewriters with dictionaries, law dictionaries, paperback dictionaries...the list goes on.

It's a good thing, too, because oops! An error has occurred! Six times throughout the corporate website, Office Max misspelled “occurred.” Two c's and two r's, as any dictionary will state. Feel free to test your own products!

Mosaic is the the largest producer of phosphate and second largest producer of potash in the world. Phosphate and potash are the two crop nutrients essential in producing fertilizer, of which Mosaic sold 15.7 million metric tons during the 2008 financial year. As experts on these two ingredients—which made the company $9.8 billion, I might add— one would think that Mosaic's dedicated description of their beloved potash on their company website would be professional and perfectly presented. Wrong.

“Occurring” is spelled with two “c”s and two “r”...they both occur more than you think. Poor potash!
