A big thank you to a Samaritan for pointing out my content writing errors

May 07, 2007

A visitor of my content writing website went through all the pages and then compiled a gargantuan list of errors (all in all, 23 errors). He, or she also posted the list in the comments section of this blog: I deleted the comments because first, it didn’t make sense posting it when he or she could have simply emailed it to me, and second, I’m in the process of removing the errors so after that the comment would be rendered meaningless.

He, or she did a marvelous job; it was so good that I couldn’t have gotten it better even after paying for it. Some remarks lurk on the fringes of being scathing, but hey, I think I deserve that, considering the kind of mistakes I’ve made. I wonder how much time was spent going through each and every article, reading it carefully and then skimming the text for grammatical errors as well as typos.

I felt really bad when I went through the list of those errors. But now I’m really grateful because now at least these errors are gone from my website. Whoever took so much trouble, has helped me a lot and I’m really, really grateful. They were also a good learning lesson.

I might have been losing business due to these errors.
