Writing and Editing

Category Description

This category and its subcategories contain the sites of commercial enterprises offering writing and writing-related services. It also includes sites offering supporting services to these enterprises, such as the sites of trade associations, educational and training programs, and industry news and profiles.

When a group of websites specializes in services being offered to a specific field, a subcategory is created and named for that field. (For example, all sites related to technical writing are listed in the "Technical" subcategory.)

Most sites, however, are about enterprises offering services to a broad range of fields. These sites are listed in the main category if they focus on both writing and editing services, but are listed in a more specific category if their services are more specialized.

Technical

This category contains links to businesses and firms that focus on technical communication, including technical writing. Technical writers are often referred to as technical communicators, technical authors, technical editors, documentation managers, content managers, information designers and everything in-between. Technical writing professionals create technical documentation, publications, instructions, policies and procedures on a variety of subjects for multiple mediums, including print brochures, guides and manuals. Also, online, online Help, CD-ROM, and e-learning instruction. Recent trends in technical communication involve 'single sourcing' - a content management method which allows companies to create and edit documentation from a single information source to produce multiple formats, including but not limited to: print, online, PDF, and Help files.

Please submit to the appropriate continental subcategory, such as North America (for United States and Canada based businesses).

Sites currently listed at this level are being migrated to the appropriate regional subcategory. - Thank you.

Technical communication firms at this level will have offices in multiple continents. However, please be aware that many firms throughout the regional subcategories offer services worldwide.
