Hey everyone! Today's post is going to be a shorter post since there is not a ton to say about the topic but I want to make sure you all know. There are new perks in the @creatorsguild for using our proofreading workshop to improve the quality of your posts.

## Why Have Your Work Proofread
A few months ago I wrote a post explaining why you need to get your work proofread before uploading to the Steem platform. To read the post in full [click this link](https://steemit.com/writing/@jrswab/why-you-need-to-have-new-content-proofread) but in case you are short on time let's nail down the key points again.

### Improve Your English
Even those of us who are native English speakers have trouble writing. It's not a straightforward language to grasp due to how many rules exist. If you are not a native English speaker and you write your blog in English, then it can not be avoided.

Proofreading will significantly improve the quality of your blog post with the need to add any extra content. Making our posts easy to read is imperative for our growth. I can't tell you how many times an otherwise excellent write-up was left out of my curation due to an overwhelming amount of bad English.

### Minimal Typos
Typos are inevitable. You should see my Grammarly account before I go through and fix them all. Typos are the hardest to catch when we proofread our work. It's good to read what we typed after we finish, but getting a new set of eyes on the content is the best approach.

### Make Your Post Easy To Read
Reading work that has not gone through the proofreading stage makes it incredibly hard to follow what is being said in the post. The level of difficulty ranges from person to person, but no matter how skilled the writer is, they shoot themselves in the foot when ignoring proofreading.

### Be More Professional
If your goal is to grow your blog to new levels, then there needs to be some degree of professionalism. Proofreading gives that edge to all who take the time to find a proofreader willing to help out. It is the professionalism that makes a blogger stand out.

Over time, the readers see a level of consistency. Add in a good proofreader on each post, and you set yourself up for long-term success. There is no way for someone to "go pro" with sloppy writing and a ton of typos.

## Use The Creator's Guild Discord Chat!
Not everyone knows someone confident in proofreading. That is why we have a dedicated team of proofreaders in the [Creators' Guild Discord group](https://discord.gg/C9UEHPs). Our proofreading team is step three in our blog creation section of our chat group.

It is in this category that you will be able to get the help you need to create your next stellar post for the Steemit network. You do not need to use every step if you already have a specific one down, but to gain the perks your post in step four, you will have to use the proofreading section.

## What You Get For Getting Proofread
If you use the proofreading section of the @creatorsguild discord chat, you earn a few perks. These perks continue to evolve so make sure you join to know when thing update. The first perk is being able to share your post with the rest of the group. Since there is no link dump, it is much easier for the members of our group to see what you wrote for the Steem blockchain.

Perk two is a 75-100% upvote from me, and the level all depends on how many people used the proofreading section that day. I am no whale, but I do know that every little bit helps all creators on this platform. (Any delegations to @creatorsguild will get used to upvote proofread work as well.)

Perk three for using the proofreading section of our group is that I will send same SBD to @smartsteem to give your post an extra boost. This upvote is not from the bid bot they have but the buy a vote option so the amount of Steem used by me and earned by you will vary.
