If I needed an experienced content editor to review my E-book for spelling and grammar errors and make appropriate changes, how much would this usually cost for a 30-40 page E-book?

That varies widely, just like writing rates - most editors I've seen charge anywhere from $5-$15 per page.

  I'm sure you can get it done for much less - but then I'd be fearful to see the editing job you end up with. LOL

  Mark,
  
  Seeing your offer so inspired me I went to your website to see what you're all about. Dang! Great copywriting skills! I don't need anything done at the moment, but I was so captivated, I wanted to order your services anyway.
  
  Great job, and a truly generous offer.
  
  Thanks

  But then you wouldn't be getting a fiver in your currency, would you?

Hi guys, I have a 200 page ebook? Is there like a volume discount for the amount of pages?

By page do you mean A4 word doc?

I've seen a lot of bad editing so be careful. One of the biggest mistakes I see people make is changing tenses throughout the manuscript. If you can find someone for $5 who's good go for it. But be on the lookout-it could end up costing way more in time and money if they don't do it right.

At The eBook Coach we have a whole line of ebook services including editing (www.theebookcoach.com) For 30-40 pages, it depends on what's in it. I just did a book for a Pastor and she had a lot of "tense" issues plus scripture and it was quite involved-so something like that would go for $400. But normally it would be less.

I've also done ebooks where English was the second language. They go for more. So it depends. If you want a quote send an email to info@theebookcoach.com.
