What The FAQ?

What is the difference between editing and proofreading?

Proofreading services are the final stage of the editorial process. They focus on correcting surface-level errors like spelling, grammar, punctuation, and formatting inconsistencies. Editing services, on the other hand, go deeper. They involve improving the flow, clarity, tone, and structure of the text. Proofreading polishes the text; editing improves the writing itself.

How much do proofreading services cost?

The cost of professional proofreading services is usually calculated per word or per hour. It depends on the length of the document and the quality of the original writing. Afrolingo provides transparent quotes based on a sample review of your text, ensuring you pay a fair price for the level of effort required.

Do you offer academic proofreading for dissertations?

Yes. We offer specialized dissertation proofreader services. Our editors are familiar with academic rigor and citation styles (APA, MLA, Harvard). We help students and researchers present their work clearly and professionally, ensuring that language barriers do not negatively impact the assessment of their research.

Can you proofread translated content?

Absolutely. This is often called linguistic review or revision. As a proofreading company, we review translated documents to ensure they are grammatically correct in the target language and free from typos. We also check that the translation reads naturally for native English speakers or speakers of the target language.

What is your turnaround time for proofreading?

We offer flexible turnaround time options to meet your deadlines. For urgent projects, we can provide expedited online proofreading services. Because proofreading is faster than translation or heavy editing, we can often return shorter documents within 24 to 48 hours without compromising quality.
