Proofreading Service (Web and Print)
Proofreading is usually the final stage of content editing and is one of the most important ingredients in the entire publishing process. Using a professional proofreader can help prevent errors being published in your website or publication. Even small mistakes can undermine presentation, distract a reader or compromise a business’s professionalism and credibility, so you must make sure that your text is correct.
My proofreading service includes checking your text, including headings and captions, for:
- Punctuation, spelling and grammar
- Formatting and layout (pagination, prelims, word and line breaks)
- Word processing errors
- Live and correct URLs.
