The website German Proofreader and Copy-Editor is a search database facilitating your search for German or German-speaking freelancers from the publishing field. You will find competent proofreaders and copy-editors, as well as science copy-editors and science proofreaders for your German language production (for example, books, magazines, journals, customer-magazines, business reports, product descriptions, corporate image brochures, advertisements).

We equipped this database-assisted directory with a sophisticated search function, allowing customers to find the appropriate freelancer for their current project quickly and easily. Just as with printed directories, a customer contacts the freelancer directly via email, telephone, fax or mail - or by using the contact form that is displayed on the same page as the list of results.

The website German Proofreader and Copy-Editor means:
- Website access without pass word
- Free of charge use
- Flexible and sophisticated search functions
- Detailed presentation of the freelancers
- No distracting banner ads in the directories
- Clearly structured portal
- Highly efficient database
- Always up-to-date data
- Downloadable print-directories
- Publicity on large German fairs

The German version of our copy-editors and proofreaders database is the most extensive directory for Germany, Austria and Switzerland. The database was developed in the fall of 1999 and, since January 2000, has been available on the internet, free of charge, to customers from all lines of business.

There are two ways to register on this database as copy-editor or proofreader: basic entry and full entry. For the full entry, a service provider gives the name of his company and describes in detail what competencies and references the company has. The service provider’s presentation page is composed of a free-text field as well as service characteristics that the freelancer has selected.

Easy Menu Navigation - Fast Loading Sites

We gave the directory menu a clearly arranged design, allowing you to find what you are looking for quickly and easily.

The general search gives you a good overview of the interpreters listed. It also shows you whether the list includes certified interpreters of a specific language combination.

The refined search allows for a much more specific search: customer specifications, type of interpreting, area of expertise, additional services, as well as the interpreters’ specialties.

Often an on-site interpreter is needed: the search by location even provides you with maps.

All of the data is stored in a highly efficient SQL-database, guaranteeing fast loading sites at all times.

Wherever you look, there are banners flashing, lines running across the screen, windows popping up. Websites with banner ads generally make it harder to concentrate on the actual content of the site. It is our wish that your customers look at your web presentation (example) and not be distracted by banner ads. For this reason, there have never been any banner ads or other advertisements on our websites since the portal was founded in January 2000.

Registration
Using this freelancer portal is free of charge for all those who are looking for a service provider. We finance this service with an annual fee from freelancers who are registered in our directories and not with disturbing banner ads that distract users and customers from their search.
You can register online, with the PDF-registration-form or with a registration letter, which we will gladly send you by mail. Please order this letter through info@german-freelancer.com.
After your presentation page has been set up on the internet, you will receive an invoice for the annual fee via mail or email. Please make this amount payable to one of our accounts within 10 working days after receiving the invoice.
