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

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.

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

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…

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

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 2ND PLACEHOLDER POST

the blog’s launch date and time

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.

What’s the saddest thing you’ve seen at your job?

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

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

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.

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.

How does it feel to have sex with a 40 year old curvy aunty?

It’s that straightforward.

UH-OH…

“Administrativa” like:—

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.

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

Open them and fill with pre-prepared copy.

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 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.

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

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

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

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

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.

Who your blog is aimed at, or who might be interested

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

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

Addressing your question more directly:—

Open it for editing. Fill it with your own text on:—

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

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

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).

I hope you didn’t delete them.

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.

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.
