My blog is new. I need 10 article posts for my blog. How much should I pay for it?

The 4th, 5th and 6th placeholder posts

It’s that straightforward.

What is the dirtiest thing you have allowed your husband to do?

the blog’s main language

I am the author and owner of Ramen Freak. I work in Windows and Linux mobile computing for a boring, colorless, publicly listed corporation in East Coast USA. I live with Janet (my wife since 1985) and two whimsical cats the size of battle tanks in the lush concrete suburbs of Anytown, Anystate. My wife isn’t ‘big’ on noodles though. Oh well…

Every day, around 7 million blog posts are published on the Internet. You’re fighting for attention and breathing space even with a voice.

The second placeholder post is empty. Use it to introduce your blog and yourself.

“Administrativa” like:—

What is your opinion? I am 150-152 and I feel short. I’m 15 years old. I feel like this makes me look like a baby and ugly on most clothes.

how frequent the blog is updated (i.e. what is your posting day — every Tuesday at 8 p.m. is a good starting point)

If you’re running a hobby-horse blog, you generally don’t pay because then you’d be inviting people to guest-post out of interest.

What is the best way to keep my vagina clean and fresh?

I hope you didn’t delete them.

Oh, well done, bruv. You’ve made the second biggest blogging mistake.

the blog’s launch date and time

Would Donald Trump's reelection make the world more dangerous?

This is because you’re meant to fill them with pre-prepared copy (text and pictures).

THE 1ST PLACEHOLDER POST: ‘Hello, world!’

English is the blog’s language, but other languages may appear occasionally (hopefully with an English translation).

If James Bond is meant to be the best secret agent in the world, how come all the bad guys in the World seem to know who he is?

This blog updates every Tuesday at 8 p.m. EST (midnight UTC, Wednesday).

This is your first actual post — the first piece of ‘meat’ for your blog. Open it and fill it with pre-prepared copy.

You can expect to pay up to US$7 a word with experienced writers or bloggers (with 10+ years’ experience) — same as magazine writing rates.

Why do men love to stink/being smelly?

If you succeed, you succeed. If you fail, you fail. It doesn’t matter either way because you still have to do some elementary things.

Comments close on all posts after 28 days. Comments should be in English as far as possible, although all languages are welcomed. Comments once posted cannot be retracted or removed, so please comment at your own risk.

Just carry on from where you are. Stay on target, Luke.

Why are leftist movements so popular among young people?

Your blog’s editorial window (“niche,” although that’s the wrong word) — what your blog is generally about or tends to focus on

If you’ve just launched your blog, it should already have 3–6 empty placeholder posts autogenerated by the platform or system.

“What if I’ve already deleted those placeholder posts? What if I’ve posted a few posts already?”

The Roman Empire at the time of Christ kept meticulous records. Why then, is there no record of the trial of Jesus?

The Ramen Freak is about all things ramen and noodles, Japanese or not. It focuses on traditional as well as “new wave” or “fusion” recipes and discusses protips for creating the “perfect” noodle dish for the noodle aficionado.

Whatever the editorial window or niche, your blog has a ‘voice.’ That voice is you.

There’s no point in backtracking. Don’t bother to re-create those placeholder posts.

What does success really mean to you? Is it about happiness, money, or something else?

Your writing doesn’t have to be perfect for a blog. It only needs to be reasonably readable — and reasonably formatted (which you still have to do anyway even for a piece written by someone else).

You need to understand why you yourself should be doing the writing for your own blog — certainly for the first two years.

What is treasury?

Even news agencies like AP, Reuters, AFP, etc (with hundreds of reporters each worldwide) have their own overall ‘corporate’ and ‘news’ persona or voice.

The biggest mistake any blogger could make is producing a blog that has no voice — no persona, no personality, no flavour and no perspective behind the words.

I welcome submissions of recipes, stories and photos. Please discuss with me. I am prepared to pay US$1 per word for unique, eye-catching pieces.

The 3rd placeholder post

Example:—

John “Ramenista” Smith

The first placeholder post is typically headlined “Hello, world!” with no content. Leave it alone. This is your blog’s birth certificate. It helps the search engines to ‘notice’ the launch of your blog.

Never mind what the Internet is telling you. The starting rate is US$1 per word for a 300–500-word piece (with minimum 3 photos) that’s unique and exclusive to your blog — with a 30%–50% kill rate for submitted but cancelled acceptance.

The About page will always be your blog’s most-viewed item and click magnet.

Once you’ve done the above, copy and paste the above into a new static page (“About”), edit it here and there, and publish. Add a link into your blog menu for the About.

On the balance of all practical probabilities, it’s easier (and cheaper) to write your own stuff.
