Essay Shark describes itself as a professional writing service, as brief as that. The website looks neat and inviting. It offers a lot of essay samples on various topics, as well as a detailed instruction on placing your order. You are also welcome to get acquainted with the authors working at this service.
SERVICES OFFEREDFrom what it looks like, EssayShark.com is basically a platform to connect people in need of writing services with professional essay writers. They do not list the exact services that they offer on the website. Presumably, if you need a more specific service or a variation thereof (for example, editing & proofreading, etc.), you can discuss it with the writer once you get in touch with one. Alternatively, you can specify if they will do what you would like them to with their customer support.
After you place the order, you get bids from authors who are ready to write for you. Then, you get to choose the writer to execute the order yourself.
As for the essay writing proper, you can evaluate the quality of the service by looking through their various essay samples which you can find in abundance on the website Essayshark.com. In our humble opinion, the quality of their writings is quite respectable.
Another great advantage of Essay Shark is that they have not only the web version. They also have their own applications for both iOS and Android. This means that you can simply install the app and access all the services from your mobile device – keep updated on the progress of your orders, interact with your writer(s), and perform billing operations – in just several taps.
PRICING AND SPECIAL OFFERSEssay Shark claims to have the lowest prices on the market, but there are no prices specified. This is an inconvenience since when students want to have something written for them, they expect to see the price to instantly know if it fits into their budgets.
Apparently, what they mean is that the prices are negotiated with the authors. The writers are bidding for your order, and you get to choose the most attractive bid. So, the writers compete with one another for your order, and this should encourage them to offer competitive prices. Understandably, we have not spotted any information about discounts or special offers to speak of.
The ordering and billing procedure is quite comprehensive and customer-friendly. When you place an order here, you are required to put some money on your account. But it does not mean that your writer will get it. Only if you are satisfied with your paper, you can choose to pay this money to your author. So, it cannot really be regarded as an upfront payment. Besides, they do offer a money back guarantee.
SERVICE QUALITYWe have mentioned that, in our opinion, the quality of the writing is quite good, judging from the samples from Essayshark.com website. Still, we have decided to test it a bit more. We have addressed the customer service and asked for a sample. We received a three-page essay on psychology in due time. It was very well-written, but it did not come with a reference list so we could not see how well they comply with the reference format requirements. As the customer support agent explained, this was due to the fact that it was a free sample.
CUSTOMER SUPPORTEssay Shark's support team is highly professional and very friendly. However, regarding the channels, they have made some interesting choices. For whatever reason, they decided against such conventional support channels an email address to drop a message or a phone number to call to, should you have a very urgent question to ask or an immediate matter to discuss about your order. Instead, you can reach them via their live chat, available both through the website and the app, or through their social media accounts – Facebook, Twitter, and Google+.
CONCLUSIONThe main advantage of EssayShark.com is that even though you are not the one writing your paper, you still remain the one in charge of the process: you get to choose the writer yourself, you can negotiate the price, etc.
However, there are some disadvantages that can potentially be critical. You cannot see any rough price list to reckon up the budget in your head. And the channels to reach their customer support are limited.
