Editor Needed For Approx. 100 Health Articles

    This should be a really easy job, but before you continue you MUST NOTE that this thread is only for quality conscious people. If you don't care about what and how you are writing, but just write for the sake of money, please leave this thread. Because if I am not satisfied with the work you provide I won't pay you. Simple as that. I already had much stress with this poor written content that is on my websites.

    What's the job?

    The niche is HEALTH. If you're not fairly familiar with this subject than this job is not for you. I have 3 websites to edit and some of the articles written there are on the level of a 10 year old. I have edited some myself and some are not bad, so therefor I would say that around half of those 100 need to be edited, not all. Still I want you to check each and every one and do the following if applicable:

    • Rewrite poor sentences to professional, but still maintaining an easy to understand content
    • Be positive
    • Add more information, as much as needed or less. Whatever needs to be done to make it high quality
    • Edit spelling mistakes (though there are not many)
    • Information must be accurate
    • No false statements or deceptive messages
    • Use objective writing, meaning, avoid the word "I"

    So in essence the job is to read these articles and improve them to the level of high quality!!! No quality, no pay. If you can do that please post your bid here below. A great benefit for you is also time that is on your side. I am not in a time limit, but would like to see these edited in around 2-3 weeks, so as you see you have plenty of space. You will start with the first websites and move your way up to the third and last.

    Every bidder will receive a poor article and edit it with the rules stated above. The one that does the best will get the job.

    It's a challenge and I take it up. Health writing is my forte. I agree to your terms and will oblige them all. Pay me only if you are happy with my tweaking although you did not tell how much you are going to compensate if you are happy with the editing work.

    You can send me the poorly written content right away and see me tweak it to a readworthy article.

    Thanks to all who applied. The writer has not been chosen yet and will probably be tomorrow, so there is still time to apply. I will message the person tomorrow.

    Best of Luck!

    My rate for proofreading/copy editing is $10 per 500 words as a guideline, although it can be negotiated for a bulk order of editing.
