The web add on for Grammarly is useful if you write your posts onto Mylot. Just use it for correcting basic mistakes and English Grammar as you write.
If you want to spend time making a better post then the Hemmingway app is free and you can also use that online. www.hemmingwayapp.com
I learned about that here on Mylot
For detailed article analysis then ProWritingAid has a free version. However, do not get too carried away as you may find yourself spending a whole afternoon correcting a short article.
www.prowritingaid.com
Autocrit seems to have stopped a lot of the free stuff, but may help a fiction authour.
www.autocrit.com
However, anyone wanting to learn English grammar so they know if any correction is justified could pop over to www.gregoryswritingsite.com and do a bit of learning.
Use Paperrater.com for a college essay.
On Mylot it does not matter if your English is not perfect, but I know some are trying to learn.
It is not worth paying for paid versions of the same thing in my experience.
You can also try After the Deadline.
www.editminion is actually fun and I have edited this post to put it in as someone just mentioned it in a reply.
All these online grammar tools can be useful if you need them and do slightly different things.
They are not useful if you get obsessed by them. Great writers break the rules more often than you think and it can be fun to lift a paragraph and run it through any one of these.
For a free plagiarism checker use www.smallseotools.com
That site also has other SEO resources but I really do not think we need to bother about that on Mylot.

I also have grammarly.com but often have to scold it. :-)
It's no human brain. Far from it. It often tells me that something is wrong although everything is perfect. If I didn't know the English grammar well and believed grammarly, my texts would look quite odd.
It helps me only with spelling mistakes (I'm not so good at typing) and missing commas.

I've never even thought about grammar, I always focus on checking plagiarism, but I will check out some of these you mention, though I am the type to sit correcting a short article if something tells me I have it wrong @Jackalyn .

How nice of you to post all this very helpful information. You're probably helping a lot of writers with this and helping them save some money also.
