Proofreading tip: the easiest tells that a piece of writing wasn't edited aren't typos — they're inconsistency. Switching between "email" and "e-mail," or between first-person singular and plural halfway through a piece, reads as unpolished even when every sentence is grammatically correct. A good edit pass checks consistency (terms, tense, voice, formatting) as carefully as it checks commas.
