    Using Word isn't proofreading gurantee because its spellchecker has many flaws, as Word can't either make anyone a proofreader by itself if a person has not a strong grasp of the English language.

    Do a little research to hire a proofreader. There are many conpanies and professional writers offering this service.

    Well, you can post a thread on Services - Content Creation, or even Copywriting area. If you are not happy with the result you can go further and search on elance, freelancer or any other freelancing websites. Search them on google. If its still difficult for you, just contact me and I will help you out! :)

    you'll be able to find a quality proof reader on places like odesk or elance. I'd also look at using something called write point for your content proofing, works amazingly well and helps to bring the article's English and Grammar standard up!

    Hi there,

    I think if you're looking for a proofreader, the best thing to do is search 'proofreading' with a search engine. There are a lot of companies out there and I'm sure you can find one with a rate that suits you. Of course, i work for a proofreading company :) and I think we have good rates and a good service. If you would like to find us, search for 'mrLingua English proofreading'

    Fiverr.com would be the best way to find an English proofreader for a good rate. They'll help find any grammar issues and typos and fix them.

    If I were you I'd search on DP. Create a thread in the proper BST forum and you should get a ton of PMs and then choose the one that satisfies you.
