Hello every one ,any recommended proofreading service website for thesis or paper editing ?
Dear Asma,
As Nashaat mentioned, resources such as Grammarly, ProWritingAid, or Microsoft Word’s built-in tools can provide a starting point for simple grammatical corrections. They are cost-effective, user friendly, and relatively efficient.
As a next step, I would recommend engaging with a friend, local colleague, or your graduate adviser. Even if their English language proficiency is similar to yours, a second pair of eyes can often help identify issues that the original author may have inadvertently overlooked. Some schools even offer in-house editorial support via the university library or student services. Ask around, you may be surprised by the options available in your personal network.
After you’ve exhausted these resources, if your budget allows, I would suggest engaging with a professional editorial service. A professional editor can enhance the word choice, logic, and clarity of your writing, increasing the likelihood for manuscript acceptance.

Dear Asma! Greetings from Indonesia.
As far as I know, I used besteditproof.com for editing my paper that submitted on an international journal. The quality is impressive and internationally recognized with the reviewers. You can check their website on besteditproof.com to see their amazing works.
One editing service that corrects for grammar, English, logic and flow, is www.scilluminate.com/ It is incredibly comprehensive for the price and I have colleagues that have used them for IF >10 journals.
I would recommend Manuscript Lab (www.manuscriptlab.com). They helped me from start till end in the publication process and even in developing rebuttals in the review process. They also assign technical expert of the same field (for improving scientific presentation of data) apart from language editors to improve language.
Premium version of Grammarly has helped efficiently while I am writing thesis and articles, even my supervisor asked me once “have you hired a proof/edited service?”, that indicated its performence on proofreading the entire document.
