WEBSITE/DIGITAL TEXT EDITING AND PROOFREADING​​​​​​

"To write is human,
to edit is divine."

Stephen King

 The online sales and eCommerce environment is more competitive than ever.  

 

Spelling, punctuation, and grammatical errors are inexcusable when found on websites and other marketing materials.  They can translate to severe monetary losses over the long run.


A web content editor must not only have unparalleled writing and editing skills but must also understand the unique requirements of writing for the internet:

 

  • Impeccable eye for detail

  • Top-notch grammar

  • Spelling, vocabulary and punctuation skills

  • Understanding of text aesthetics and layout

  • Familiarity with keywords and hyperlinks

When I work on your text, I will always keep track of all edits and changes. There is no risk that you will lose your original document.
