The publishing industry may seem like it’s on its knees, with print publishing going the way of dial-up modems and VHS, but thanks to eBooks, content websites, social media, and blogs, more content is being published than ever before.
The industry is actually thriving!
We’re seeing a steady increase in the amount of written content published on a daily basis, from books, magazines, and newspapers to the millions of blogs, listicles, and guides that litter the digital landscape.
Increased quantity doesn’t always lead to decreased quality, but in this case, it has. Many blogs, guides, articles, and self-published novels are posted with little to no editing or proofreading. Creators either don’t have the time or money to edit their work or they think they can get away with it.
The problem is, while the occasional novel reader is happy to overlook a few simple mistakes, the same can’t be said for everyone, and sometimes errors are incredibly costly.
Would you give your credit card details to a website riddled with basic errors, a site that is as legible as a 401-email scam? Would you place your trust in a company that can’t be bothered to hire the services of a native writer or a skilled editor?
Of course not, and you’re not alone.
Thousands of books are published every week, and a significant number of these are launched as self-published titles. Many of them are published without any proofreading or editing. At best, the authors will check the work themselves and then hand it over to a friend to check for noticeable errors.
But unless an experienced editor checks the work, the final book will be riddled with mistakes. No one wants to read a novel filled with mistakes—it breaks the immersion and makes everything feel a little tacky and amateurish.
Self-publishing may be done without big editing teams, reviewers, and marketing budgets, but it doesn’t have to be cheap and it certainly shouldn’t look cheap.
InkBlimp was cofounded by a writer who got his start as a self-published author. He sold over six-figures in his first year as a self-published author, but he also published his first book without hiring an editor and soon felt the wrath of dozens of reviewers. It was a mistake he didn’t make again, but it’s one that countless others are making every day.
To avoid the same issues, take a look at our editing services. See below for more information on book editing services, including current pricing and availability.
We can edit any type of website content, correcting the work, bringing it up to standard, and ensuring it’s spick-and-span before it goes live on your site or in your publication. For more information, and to get a detailed quote, complete the form at the bottom of this page.
All the work completed by InkBlimp goes through several checks and edits before being returned to the client. It’s something we take great pride in, and something that always guarantees the very best results.
Whether you need us to write 10, 100, or 10,000 articles—or whether you need a comprehensive guide or a nonfiction book—we’ll ensure that every word is penned by a skilled writer before being passed to at least one experienced editor.
