Editing, copywriting and proofreading services

A professional editor or copywriter combines attention to detail and a clear understanding of what the writing aims to communicate and to whom. The editing process includes correction to grammar, spelling, punctuation, style and usage as well as a more in-depth check of the work's structure and content.

Editors may provide other services too, such as fact-checking, research, checking citations and so on.

At the final stage of the editing process, a proofreader makes sure that the text is 100% error-free before going to print or being published online.

Whatever type of editorial help you require, you can be confident that I give every job the same degree of thoroughness and proficiency.

Improving your writing for effectiveness on the web

Using language well is all about context, and writing for the web requires different skills than writing for print publication. As an experienced writer and editor of website content and online publications, I can help shape your text for maximum effectiveness online, including writing and reviewing website content for SEO purposes and optimizing text for different contexts and audiences. As a ghostwriter I can write articles for your website that will help boost your search engine ranking and maximize your exposure; by posting the articles elsewhere on the web, you can generate more in-bound links to your website and boost your ranking further.
