How to Calculate Payment Using PayPal
Have you counted the words in your document yet?
1. In MS Word, see the Tools menu / Word Count. Or, for double-spaced text, you can estimate by figuring 300 words per page.
2. Round to the nearest thousand words. (For example, if your document has 3499 words, estimate "3000." If you count 3500 words, estimate "4000.")
The rate for this level of editorial service is $18 per 1000 words.
When you make your order, you'll enter the appropriate "quantity" of 1000-word edits at $18 each. In the second example above (4000 words), your "quantity" would be 4.
Your PayPal payment page will look like this:
Pay To: Nowick Gray
Payment For: 1000 words - Basic Copy Editing
Quantity: [example above: enter 4]
Currency: U.S. Dollars
Amount: $18.00
(Your total payment, in this example, would be
4 X $18 / 1000 words = $72.)Here are some more examples:
