So true, but there are pumped up spellchecker for WP that detect a lot of these (underline in blue instead of red): Ours spotted “Its amazing” and ” better then “. If you know you tend to make those types of errors, then run your text through a word processor that spots them. Thanks for pointing this out.

“Spell checking is still under-used,” says Conference. TRUSTING spell-check is, I think, a bigger problem.

it’s/its – your/you’re – were/where – “Tow” the line – then/than – due/do – their/they’re/there – who’s/whose

Spell-check won’t help you with those, and they are much more annoying than the ocasional[sic ] misspelled word, IMO.

This is definitely something I need to start doing pretty soon – I make a few mistakes all the time, especially if I am creating new posts late at night, and it doesn’t suprise me that I don’t remember to proofread it and subsequently leave the mistakes.

I tend to put it down to lack of time as at the moment I struggle to blog in advance as much as I used to, something I especially which to change.

Hello “Conference” — an unusual name. Thanks for visiting. You’re right about images. I can’t resist reminding you that a Gravatar image would spice up your comments.

Proofing is essential and the quality of many blogs leave a lot to be desired. Spell checking is still under-used.

Graphics are also under utilised. They can illustrate a point more clearly than words sometime. A picture is worth a thousand words so we should use a few more pictures and few less words.

Thanks for reminding me about proof reading. I just read one of my ebooks I wrote 6 months ago and found typos. I was so mad, I thought why did I not proof read? Now all those people read my ebook and said what a dunce!

I was just being lazy. I am just going to have to break my bad habits and do it everytime no matter what.

Thanks for the post.
