Proofreading

You’re feeling pretty good about your website’s text. You wrote it yourself, and you like what you’ve produced. It’s just that you aren’t 100 percent sure about those pesky semicolons, apostrophes and commas. And sometimes subject-verb agreement is confusing. You just want someone to look it over and make sure it’s grammatically clean.

When you bring us in to proof your work, we’ll go over your text with a fine-toothed comb, making sure your site reads with a professional, sharp tone. Spell check doesn’t catch everything. To have a professional presence, it pays to have WebWriters proof your site for grammar and spelling errors. We catch errors that automated methods miss.

You may need Proofreading assistance if …

The last time you owned a style manual or grammar reference book was back in freshman composition class.
Now that we mention it here, you’re not even sure what a style manual is.
There’s a layer of dust on your dictionary.
You rely totally on spell check. If there’s no squiggly line under it, it must be just fine, right?
You’re not sure you’d recognize a sentence fragment if you saw one. Just sitting there by itself.

WebWriters’ Proofreading services include such checks as …

Spelling
Subject-verb agreement
Possessives
Punctuation: We know where to place commas, apostrophes, semicolons, colons, and dashes.
Capitalization
Company-specific style: Sometimes people refer to certain procedures or departments by different names even within a company. We’ll check for consistency.

Sometimes a simple proofing job is all a person wants. With WebWriters, you can feel confident that every “i” is dotted and every “t” is crossed.
