Proof reader can't be everybody. People must have college degree from language area. It is easier be translator than proof reader. My brother is proof readaer but they don't have to much work.

The average pay for a proofreader is $ 43, 126 per ear or $2716 a month. As a proofreader, you are responsible for catching and correcting errors in different written works. You are going to look for errors big and small or grammatical mistakes. If you think, you are the one they need, why not give yourself a try?
No doubt, proofreading job is a nice and lucrative job to undertake, but any one going through this route must have a very good command of crammer, vocabulary and be a good speaker and also be very observant, must pay attention to little details.

Proofreading is a very good skill. It sells highly in freelancing sites. It is one of those skills that you take time and learn and it could pay you pretty well. With so many resources available, you can easily learn this skill.

I know of a site that pays $5 for every article of between 400 - 800 words article. And you can easily make up to $10 a day depending on the number of articles that the writers of the site submit.

I won't mind trying earning from Proof reading but it should not be technical like I found up work. I prefer easy going websites even if earnings are low on the website

Proofreading work is a highly professionalized work and it requires a high level of technicality. You need to have English prowess beyond the average level to work as a proofreader. It pays well too.

I think you are right but I guess I can do well if were given a chance but if there are unnecessary technicalities then I will pass like I did with upwork

It is not a problem this time, you can ask for help from the tools/ apps that help you correct grammar errors like Grammarly, Quillbot, Wordey, and more. All of you have to do is copy and paste the data given to you to edit and feed it to the editing tools.

Yeah, proofreading is a professional job. It pays so well and there are many jobs in freelancing sites. You actually need to be very good at grammar to start making corrections. You should also be very attentive to details.

I learned that there is no test required for the applicants. You will be instructed what to do. And then, for sure of the site hiring in your country, it is advisable to register at JOB Rapido. There are so many proofreader works there available from country to country.

You apply at Job Rapido, where you will find many urgent companies needing proofreaders. They could be from your country. I was invited to many companies from the Philippines, but I refused. I am concentrating on poetry writing.

The online Proofreading jobs I know, you would have to submit articles written by you for the site to ascertain how good you yourself are in English language. The margins for error are very small.

You'll be given articles to proofread, assess every angle of it. Check and compare the original articles if they're not plagiarised. It's not easy. We have to focus on it and spend much time proofreading. But the pay is right.
