What’s the Difference?

For additional help, take a detailed look at Editing & Proofreading. Now, are you wondering, “what’s the difference between ‘Editing & Proofreading’ and ‘Simple Proofreading’?” In short: at CleanRevise, “Editing & Proofreading” refers to a term called “copyediting”, and “Simple Proofreading” is, simply, proofreading

In other words, “Simple Proofreading” involves correcting grammar and punctuation, and I also offer suggestions to enhance your vocabulary; “Editing & Proofreading” includes all of the above in addition to possible improvements in structure, flow and phrasing.

Why these names? 

As you may know, I initially only offered “Editing & Proofreading” as one category of service. Wanting to make CleanRevise accessible to those of different backgrounds, I decided to use this catch-all phrase and forego the term “copyediting”, which is not as commonly used in conversation and is most familiar to writers and editors.

Why the price discrepancy? 

When I started CleanRevise, my goal was always to serve anyone who could use a proofreader, but I also wanted to especially help two groups: students and international workers (such as newcomers to Canada). It occurred to me that the price points of my “Editing & Proofreading” services may not always be feasible for those groups. Therefore, in order to assist more, diverse clients, I chose this particular approach in the advertising and marketing of CleanRevise.
