Try as you might, spelling errors occur on your web site. In fact, one company, TextTrust has compiled a list of the most commonly misspelled words it has found on the 16 million web pages it has spell checked over the past year.
"You only have one chance to make that first impression, and spelling errors on your web site don’t make it any easier for people to trust your organization," said TextTrust founder Daniel Rostenne.
That’s why TextTrust combines its spell checking software with human editors that check the web sites of its clients for spelling errors. "Software programs can only do so much to identify misspelled words," said Rostenne. "Human editors can use their common sense and powers of reason to detect other spelling errors. The editors are what sets TextTrust apart and makes our service even more valuable."
TextTrust wants to make sure that organizations never again receive the "I found a spelling error on your web site" email. The company offers various levels of service from a one-time review of your web site to weekly service. A free trial is offered at its web site, www.TextTrust.com and the cost of its service begins at less than $30.
