Getting A Proofreader Is So Cool!
Being the perfectionist that I am, its ultra important for me to be sure my writing is succinct and completely error free. While my readers on this blog will forgive me for the occasional misspelling, capitalization error, and casual sentence structure problems, the readers on my other blogs are a bit less forgiving. I had heard of proofreading services which for a small fee will review and correct your document. I did a search on Google and came across a few and decided on using a company called eProofread because I thought their site was really easy to navigate and seemed very credible. I am usually not in a big hurry to get my blog posts proofread because fortunately I’m not on a deadline, but in case anyone is interested they can proofread and return documents to you in as little as 3 hours. I somehow landed on their instant quote page when I came from Google and immediately entered the number of words in my post (1342 to be exact) and I instantly got a price of around $30. So simple and so cool. I decided to go for it and placed an order. I ordered the 48 hour Copper proofreading package. I immediately received an email stating they had started on my order and the anticipation had begun. 
I’m a pretty good writer so I wasn’t expecting a lot of corrections, just maybe a missing ‘and’ and a ‘their’ spelled ‘there’ here and there. I received an email with a link to my document about 28 hours later and well ahead of schedule. Boy, was I surprised. My blog post apparently had a number of mistakes that only the sharpest eye could catch. It was a good wake-up call for me because there were a lot of mistakes I missed all together. The blog post sounded so much more focused and clear after I got it back from eproofread. While I can’t afford to use them for every blog post, this was helpful for me to realize where I need to improve my writing. After perusing through their site, I also found out they do resume editing as well. I’m not looking for a new job right now, but if any of my readers are, be sure to check out the professional proofreaders at eProofread.
