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

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

Why do some people dislike Gilmore girls?

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

Who you are — you don’t have to disclose your identity, but there must be a person even with a pseudonym (not anonymous) for attracting readers and subscribers

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

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.

Ok, so this is a question seeking an answer to clear up whatever gymnastics are in my head. I'm a moderately attractive guy, sincere heart, genuinely looking to love another, established. Why don't women that I'm attracted to, want me back?

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…

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.

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

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

The 3rd placeholder post

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

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.

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.

Example:—

I was awaken between 2-3am by a voice that said “Hey”. Literally right next to my ear. Sounded like a males voice, but it wasn’t stern or deep. What could this mean?

I hope you didn’t delete them.

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

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

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

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

Addressing your question more directly:—

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.

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).

UH-OH…

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

THE 2ND PLACEHOLDER POST

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.

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

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

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

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.

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