This proofreading website provides very different editors, because, unlike most proofreading services, our editors have been fixing writing in English for the majority of their careers. A lot of the proofreading websites out there offer groups of very intelligent academics who work as editors for extra work alongside their careers. Although they may be trained in editorial skills to some level, they can't have the career-long in-depth knowledge of linguistics or the experience of error correction that our editors possess.

Our website's proofreading services
Our basic proofreading service will return your writing without any spelling errors, grammar errors, syntax errors and misplaced words. The editing addition allows your editor to think like a copy-editor and suggest ways to reword awkward or overly complex sentences to make your message as clear as possible, as well as offer other style fixes (such as formatting, ways to avoid repetition, continuity, etc.).
You'll receive your document within 12 hours of ordering this 12 hour proofreading service. We always aim to remove every spelling, grammar, syntax and word processor error.
The editing option enables us to offer reworded suggestions for a clearer message. It also provides: alternative wording to avoid repetition, continuity of word choices for named concepts and formatting (style guides can be submitted).
Availability of the 12 hour proofreading service is from Sunday to Friday. Our weekend starts at 1pm on Saturday, so the last order must be made before 1pm on Friday (BST, London time). The first order can be made at 1pm on Sunday (BST, London time). The 48, 72, and 7 day services are always available.
6,000 word limit (larger word counts are available for services with longer deadlines).
