Every proofread covers the same six things

No tiers on quality. The page count changes the price and the turnaround, not the depth of the read.

  • Spelling and grammarSubject–verb agreement, tense, plurals, commonly confused words.
  • PunctuationCommas, hyphens and dashes, apostrophes, quotation marks.
  • Typographical errorsTranspositions, doubled words, stray characters, spacing.
  • Sentence clarityRun-ons, dangling modifiers, sentences that lose the reader.
  • Formatting consistencyHeadings, numbering, capitalization, dates, fonts, spacing.
  • Professional toneConsistent voice that matches the audience for the document.
