What do Editor World's editors do?
Our professional editors will improve the clarity and readability of your document, focusing on the flow of the paper as well as grammar, word usage, spelling, punctuation, consistency, and style. Our editors provide editing and proofreading services. Although we do not provide rewriting or writing services, editors may provide recommendations or suggestions where necessary. Please provide specific instructions when you submit your document for editing services so your editor can best meet your needs.
How does the free sample edit work?
Many of our professional editors offer a free sample edit of up to 300 words to help you pick the best professional editor for you. To request a free sample edit from one of our editors, click on "Free Sample Edit" in the editor's profile and upload your document along with instructions. We recommend using the free sample edit to help you find the editor who is the best fit for your document. If the project is not a good fit, an editor may decline the free sample edit request, or choose to edit only a portion of the sample document.
