Dominion Editorial

Has anyone had any dealings with or heard of Dominion Editorial? dominioneditorial.com

They charge £120 for a copy edit on a work up to 100k words, that sounds pretty cheap. Just wondered if anyone knew anything about them.

Maybe Amazon's Createspace is more like $1200 per 100K, you should check? Certainly I thought $500 was cheap for 100K when someone discussed it with me.

2 cents US per word is about average for Copy Edit. 1,600 US dollars for 80K
Some will go as low as half a cent per word. 400 US dollars for 80k

When figuring the estimated of time per page For 80K words or more $500 for someone doing a thorough job could amount to less than min wage.

On the other hand do they offer to do a small sample of work for you to judge from?

Seems suspiciously good value. Personally, I'd only ever employ an editor by word of mouth and by seeing some final products.

You could always test them with a sample of your first 3 chapters. That way, if you're not satisfied, you haven't lost much.
