Professional editing services that give you full editorial control

Editorial control is important when choosing the right editor. When you work with us you're guaranteed the final say every step of the way. Our services are designed to be flexible in meeting your needs. You manage the entire workflow to get the content online in the most efficient way.

Flexible editing choices

You control how and when finished work, queries and editing changes are returned. The following workflow applies to both our Services — copy-editing and proofreading.

  1. Choose the right delivery option for you:
    1. section-by-section
    2. page-by-page
    3. document-by-document
  2. Choose how you receive editing queries:
    • immediately
    • section-by-section
    • on completion of the editing
  3. Choose how you want to receive details on the edits carried-out:
    • Combined in the final version showing editing markup (e.g. track changes option in MS Word)
    • A separate version showing editing markup
    • A separate, easy-to-read, summary of changes made and key editorial decisions

Clear communication

Clear communication is as important between you and your editor as it is between you and your audience. We're more than just freelancers or some faceless 'data factory'.

Maximising the value of your content means working closely with you to understand the needs of your business, your audience and your content.

How it works

The process:

  1. We accept content in most electronic formats including Word documents, PDFs and URLs (for existing online content).
  2. We will analyse your content needs and advise you on important factors, ensuring the value of your copy is increased.
  3. For Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) we will follow your SEO strategy (or work with you to develop this).
  4. We will follow your in-house styles and schemas (or work with you to develop these).
  5. On completion we will deliver your value-added content in the format appropriate to your specification.

At each stage of the process your content is in professional hands with you retaining editorial control.
