Have you ever read an article in a newspaper or magazine, or even a book where you can see what the writer was trying to tell you but couldn’t get any enjoyment from the piece because it was uneven or disjointed?

In everyday conversation we tend to jump from topic to topic and then return to the original subject and this is widely accepted, however in writing there should be a definitive structure to a piece enabling the writer to make their point and the reader to be able to follow the piece as it makes its conclusion.

Website Proofreading from Precise English

It can be difficult to get the tone and structure of a piece of writing correct, especially if the writer isn’t used to writing.

Whilst this normally might not cause any problems, when the piece of content is a website and it is disjointed or uneven it can reflect poorly on the business who owns the site.

This is where Website Proofreading from Precise English comes in: we specialise in content writing so we know how to present web content and we know what customers expect to see.

Your manuscript can become an extension of you and therefore it’s essential that it gives of the impression which you want it to.

You have less time than you might think to make this impression so it’s vital that your manuscript is the dazzling, sparkling and polished piece that you want it to be.

One of the most important aspects of presenting any piece of work is to ensure that it is proofread and edited to the highest of standards.

What is proofreading?

Many people believe that proofreading is simply checking a document for errors in spelling and grammar, but as professionals, we’re more than well aware that there is a little more involved.

Firstly, it’s important to ensure that the message you’re hoping to convey in any material you’re sending out to your customers is actually the one you are conveying in print. When you put something down in print, the message can quite easily be lost – especially if you become distracted by another point which is of equal importance. Furthermore, if you’re only used to one style of writing or used to writing for one type of audience, you may not be “pitching” your writing correctly, and the tone may become lost or seem irregular or disjointed.

Proofreading can help to ensure that the structure of your sentences and the general tone of the material are appropriate for your audience, as well as making sure that what you set out to tell your customers is what you actually tell them.

Business Proofreading from Precise English

Our entire business specialises in providing the ideal written content, whatever the particular requirements of your information and the needs of your customers so we’re ideally suited to all of your professional business proofreading needs.

You’ll be aware from when you were given your assignments or provided with guidance on preparing and structuring your final papers, which marks will be given for correct grammar, spelling and sentence structure. Furthermore, marks are likely to be deducted if these are not all present and correct to the highest of standards.

People have used proofreading in some form since man could first write, and businesses in the modern world must ensure that any published document is of the highest quality.

This is the exact reason why so many of your peers are using professional proof readers to ensure accuracy before they have the confidence to hand in their assignments for appraisal.

How does Academic Proofreading from Precise English help?

We specialise in creating distinct and effective web content and business copywriting for businesses throughout the world and, as our name suggests, we’re committed to the highest standards of “Precise English”.

At Precise English, our Academic Proofreading service does not include a re-write – we will not write it for you. We are 100% against cheating. 

One of the biggest reasons for making these errors in our experience is the bad habits which people pick up along the way.

Whether it’s crossing your hands as you turn the steering wheel, not putting a stained pan in to soak straight away or neglecting to use grammar and correct spelling, there are many bad habits which people fall into.

They’ve often been taught in the correct way but as nobody is watching we just cut corners: after all, if there’s no victim then there’s no crime – right?

WRONG.

The fact is that those spelling and grammatical errors and bad habits can actually have a very poor effect on the way in which people view you: especially if the error can be found in promotional information for your business.

How can a Precise proofreader help?

The biggest problem with bad habits is that quite often people have been making them for so long that they don’t even realise that what they’re doing isn’t the right way.

Using a professional proofreader such as Precise English to cast an objective eye over any material you want your customers to see could not only spot those bad habits but ensure that your customers never need find out.

At Precise English, we’re very aware of how difficult it is to be objective about your own work or creations. Nothing will convince us that the drawing of a bowl of fruit we did for GCSE art is anything less than a masterpiece.

That being said, we’re not entirely sure that the bowl of fruit gives the best impression of us as a professional business and before we would consider allowing it to be seen by our customers, we’d probably ask an expert for their second opinion.

Proofreading Services – an objective way of checking content

The written content of your business is exactly the same, in principal.

Writing a website or any other materials for your customers is a great way of showing your excitement, knowledge and enthusiasm for your business, services and products.  However, writing and checking your own work can lead to problems as it becomes difficult to see any mistakes because you’re simply too ‘close’ to see them as they appear. It would appear that you might be too close to the forest to see the trees.

That’s why we offer Proofreading Services: to ensure that we, rather than your customers, are the only people who ever see those mistakes.

Experts have estimated that a person or business has a meagre 17 seconds to make a good first impression during a new meeting. They further believe that when the introduction is made in print or text, this tiny window of opportunity can be as little as four seconds long.

What this means is that your text, printing and web copy needs to be well written, grammatically correct and free of any errors in order to make the most of your time.

One of the fundamental problems with editing and checking your own work is that you’re less likely to see any errors and more likely to see what you want or expect to see.

What can Proofreading Services do?

Just as the old saying “two eyes are better than one” suggests, an independent proof reader is the additional opinion who can point out problems with grammar, spelling and sentence structure but can also ensure that the message you were hoping to deliver is actually translated through your text.

Whilst a colleague might be able to help with this, they are not professionals with the skill and experience we possess.

Professional Proofreading Services from Precise English can help you get it right first time and ensure that whether you’re making a good first impression or a good 17^th impression: it’s the right impression every time.

Well-written and informative content is great, and is a powerful tool in terms of creating your own unique identity, but the whole house of cards can fall apart if this content features grammatical errors and spelling mistakes, meaning that whilst everything else about your service may be professional, you may fall at the final hurdle when it comes to how your content is presented. If you write your own copy, it’s well known that the authors of content sometimes do not notice mistakes they make; regardless of how many times they thoroughly review their writing.

Proofreading Services

It is highly important that your copy is free of error, especially when every other element of your service looks professional to potential customers. Employing a professional proofreading service means that any such errors will be ironed out, and a ‘second opinion’ regarding the terms and phrases used in your copy could be the defining factor that cements a sale. Even the best writers use proofreading to identify mistakes they may have made or to correct sections that do not flow and are not consistent, to ensure their work is clear, understandable, engaging and of the highest standard possible.

The highest and most desirable standard possible

Precise English work hard with clients to ensure that your service emanates ‘professionalism’. Small errors can tarnish your image more than you may expect, so it’s worth going the extra mile to ensure what ultimately may be a small portion of your service tarnishing your image far more than you deserve. Inconsistencies in quality can affect the entirety of services, so why not run your copy through our professional proofreading service to ensure every element of your company is of the highest and most desirable standard possible?
