The following types exist: undefinedundefinedundefined Quality Levels: Quality levels are used to categorise our linguists according to their academic degree, work experience and industry expertise. Each linguist has one of the following quality levels assigned: Junior Linguist, Linguist, Senior Linguist, Expert Linguist, Senior Linguist, Technical Expert Linguist. Orders are created with a corresponding quality level in order to match them. Language: Language in which texts can be ordered. Keywords: Keywords are specific terms that can be placed in a defined density (relative or absolute) within a text. Orders with defined keywords can only be submitted if the required keywords are placed in the required density. Stopwords: Stopwords provide flexibility to contractors when using the required keywords by allowing the placement of defined terms before of in between the keyword. Example: If you would like “flights China” to be the main keywords of the text, by selecting this option you are allowing the writers to rephrase the keywords as follows: “flights to China” or “flights in China”, using the stopwords “in” and “to”. Search engines have recognised the use of stopwords and they are vital in allowing easy use of keywords in your text. Flexendings: Flexendings provide a certain level of flexibility to contractors when using the required keywords, by allowing the extension of a keyword by up to three letters. undefinedundefined Plagiarism check: The plagiarism check ensures that the submitted text is unique and does not include any stolen text fragments from previously submitted texts or from the web.
