Meaning of proofread checks
Proofreading means writing for maximum results.
Developing effective writing is not easy, you have to invest a lot of time, energy, and effort.
The key is knowing a bit about your audience and creating a connection to your article.
Develop effective writing first before you publish. That is the basis of proofreading, so the reader can follow your story faster.
Before you publish, you might want to re-check your writing for tone, clarity, and correctness.
“Proofread is the art of correcting before publishing it.” – Dropner Blog
Below you find my 5 tips for proofreading and what to check for.
1) Clarity check
Your starting point is from scratch, from that point, you can develop your creative writing.
But be sure whatever you write about it must be clear.
Developing clear writing is effective because the message that you want to deliver is easy for the reader to understand.
Which can lead to more interactions between you and the reader.
2) Simplicity check
Writing simply is one is the hardest things to develop. Most bloggers make the mistake of writing long unfamiliar sentences with words that are difficult to understand.
Avoid those words or sentences, focus on having space in your article then you will see the challenge the reader faces.
What I do is write a sentence and explain it in one paragraph.
3) Proactive thinking check
Proactive thinking is thinking outside the box with the ability to motivate yourself or others.
Some people can be feeling stuck or have no more ideas. When your readers review your blog they can get inspired by your content.
A proactive mindset can improve your writing because you have to keep your readers in mind.
4) Link-building check
When your readers review your blog, present your other content with links. Check your content for relevance to other content.
This can spark interest in your other content which can lead to new interactions. That’s why many content writers (me too) use this powerful technique.
5) Check for type-errors
Unfortunately, typos are still the most common mistakes made by bloggers. Luckily this mistake is easy to fix!
When you master it then this can be an essential tool to deliver a message.
Reminder: Correct them and be blogging police. Also, Grammarly.com can boost your proofreading checks.
Summary
The reason why you have to re-check your writing is that you can correct mistakes and learn from them to increase your future writing.
Proofreading checks your writings can have a positive impact on your readers and yourself.
Developing good writing can deliver your message faster and with maximum effect.

Thanks for the great advice on proofreading!
One of the most important, in my opinion, is the use of small paragraphs. What is fine for a book can be quite tedious for a blog or website.
Your post provides an excellent example of doing it right.
