You have decided to use an essay writing service to create your essay for you. There are some great services out there and there are some services that are looking to screw you over like a hot college girl with no money. So, here is a list of some of the demands you should make of your essay writing service. If they cannot live up to the stipulations on this article, then you should cut them loose and find a service that can. Thanks to EssayMama.com writing service for consultation.
The essay writing service should be an established company
It is very easy to set up a website, sell a few dud essays and close down to restart somewhere else. An established company has an incentive to treat you well and will have an online reputation to maintain.
They should be able to write multiple types of academic paper
This goes without saying. If they are only offering a limited number of essay writing types, styles or subjects, then they do not have a very big writing staff. Worse still, it may just be one person working alone, which is not good unless his or her service is only restricted to writing essays on his or her own subjects (qualified subjects).
There should be no hidden charges
They are easy to sneak in after the order form. Things such as a paid plagiarism check, implied extra for a British or US writer, or even a charge for amending your work (that is an insidious one).
They should offer a reasonable price
There is a fine line between too cheap and too expensive. Too cheap will mean that third world workers are being paid to write your essay, or a person without the qualifications is being paid to write your essay. Too expensive and the company is just exploiting college students for bigger profits.
Academic research is conducted via trusted academic sources
You often see on your essays, “No quotes from Wikipedia” and things of that ilk. It is because you do not gain marks for poor referencing. The essay writing service should know this and most of the bibliography should contain trusted academic sources.
No templates should be used
A template is used by essay writers to structure an essay and make it easier to write. They often remind writers where to quote, how to introduce, how many points to make in the conclusion. Sadly, it makes essays very similar and is a sign to essay markers that something is not quite right.
Old essays should not be resold
A classic essay writing service trick is to custom write one essay, sell it, keep it on file and then sell it next term to the next student that requests it. They can get away with this quite a few times before they are rumbled.
Essays are purged from the system once accepted
To stop essay writing services from reusing essays, they should have them purged from their system once they are accepted. This also stops disenfranchised staff from stealing them, leaves less evidence of the sale, and prevents hackers from getting hold of your essay.
Writers understand that subject
If they are truly qualified, then the writers should know the concepts of each qualification. This should show through within their text; the text should not be a demonstration of textbook regurgitation.
A no obligation quote
It is common practice for an essay writing company website to allow you to get a no-obligation quote. They should also produce it instantly instead of having you send the essay parameters away to receive a quote later.
It should be 100% unique
This means the text should not flag any plagiarism checkers. The quotes should be correctly entered so they can be checked if they are flagged with plagiarism checkers.
It should be 100% original
No essay should resemble other essays in any serious (suspicious) way. This means that the themes, points and arguments of another essay should not appear in the essay you purchase (or at least not in the same order and exclusively). The essay writing service should start every essay from scratch and it should be written for the client/customer only.
Old essays should not be re-written
This point may seem obvious given the previous points, but it is possible to rewrite old essays so they pass plagiarism checkers. You should be able to trust your essay writing service to create an essay and not produce a rewritten one. Furthermore, they should not rewrite your essay and sell that on to others.
A dedicated customer support team
Your time is precious, so having to put up with a slow, unfriendly, unprofessional or unreliable customer support is not acceptable.
A simple buying process
The more convoluted the process is then the more likely it is that you are being conned. This may sound counter-intuitive but scammers add convolution in order to convince you they are legitimate. A real company will try to put as fewer barriers between you and the “yes” (purchase) as possible.
Payments are secure
This should go without saying these days, especially when creating a secure online payment platform has never been easier. If it looks or feels anything less than secure then give the company a miss. After all, you can install a secure PayPal widget for free, so there is no excuse for insecure and poor quality checkout services.
They should have a large team of writers
If not then there is no guarantee that they will have the right person for your job, and you are likely to be left standing during peak seasons.
Handing it in as yours should not be illegal
It is only “illegal” if you do not own the copyright. It may be morally wrong or cheating to hand it in as your own, but it should not be illegal. If you use an essay writing service then the full rights to the work should pass to you once payment is made so that you may legally put your name to it and claim ownership.
Each writer should have at least a degree
Even if essay writers are only being asked to write High School content, they should still have a degree (or equivalent) in the appropriate subject; otherwise why bother stipulating that teachers must have a degree if any High School graduate will suffice?
High scoring and credible references
There is a difference between high scoring references, good references and credible references. Credible references were mentioned earlier i.e. do not use Wikipedia. A good reference is one that the teacher expects such as textbooks and course material. High scoring references show a broad level of research that is also highly specific, relevant, acknowledged and credible within the academic community.
They must have a good online reputation
If they do not have an online reputation, then they have not been around very long and should not be trusted. If they have a bad online reputation, then they should be avoided. Do not trust all good testimonials or reviews, but do trust all negative ones.
The service should be 100% confidential
They should go out of their way to make sure every element of the service is 100% confidential. The last thing you want is other people knowing you used an essay writing service. Not only will it get you expelled, it will also lose your friends, credibility, respect and maybe even your future jobs.
All correspondence is private
You do not want your college to find out you used an essay writing service. This means that correspondence should fall within their confidentiality clause/ privacy policy.
System should be run on a secure network
Essays are valuable, which makes them targets for hackers. The network should be secure so that people do not steal your essay, your financial details, your email address or find out that you used an essay writing service.
They should have a reputation for meeting deadlines
It is so easy to miss a deadline, and as a student you should not have to put up with it. Worst of all, most essay writing services will charge you based on your deadline, which means if they miss it then they have automatically overcharged you (not to mention let you down too).
That is only 25 points to demand
There are 25 points on this article that you should demand of your essay writing service when you purchase. There are actually closer to 50 points you should demand, but that would require a much larger article. They have molded their service into one that conforms to the fifty elements that all essay-writing services should have, which means the 25 points mentioned above there as standard (i.e. you need not pay extra with this essay writing service).
