Which one to choose? Proofreading or editing?
In any case, these services will clear your work from grammatical, punctuation, spelling, typographical and all other errors, and also correct your formats (references, footnotes, etc), but let’s differentiate these two services first! While our proofreaders will look out for your spelling, detect your incorrect or missing punctuation, and fix any possible inconsistency in your text, our editors will correct your core issues within your text, go over your constructed sentences and ensure the right use of language. In a nutshell, they will improve your text, make it clear and adjust its tone!
When to pick proofreading services?
- If you are confident about your use of language but want to make your text perfect
- If you only need the service for the final draft of your text
- If you need a basic grammar check for typographical errors, punctuations and spelling mistakes
- If you need to receive it back fast
When to pick editing services?
- If you are not feeling confident about your use of language and require an enhancement in your language and a solid revision
- If you need the service from the first draft of the document until it is finalised
- If you would like to collaborate with the editor to make sure that your work so that its quality is as refined as possible
- If you have more time - as editing takes longer time than proofreading
For what reasons are you looking for these services? Academic? Business matters? Or are you an author? It can be just personal as well, you might just want your cover letter to get checked! In either case, feel free to contact us for further detail!
