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

Twitter (now X ‘ecks’): xxx

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.

THE 2ND PLACEHOLDER POST

Artists get better with age, e.g., painting. Yet when it comes to pop music, the famous work tends to be written when musicians are in their twenties. So, why aren't Bob Dylan or the Stones banging out amazing tunes now?

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 blog’s launch date and time

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

Have you ever been forced into bestiality?

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.

What was your most embarrassing wardrobe malfunction in public?

I hope you didn’t delete them.

Example:—

Open them and fill with pre-prepared copy.

The 4th, 5th and 6th placeholder posts

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.

What sexual experience did you have at a highway rest area?

The 3rd placeholder post

the blog’s main language

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

How does a 45-year-old man get a girlfriend?

This blog was born on Wednesday, September 18, 2024, at 7:21 p.m. EST (23:21 UTC).

Why do I get stressed when I go to bed?

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.

It’s that straightforward.

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

Is there anything wrong with me because I'm still single?

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

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…

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

Why cant I sleep? When I'm about to fall asleep, I get excited that im about to sleep, causing me to wake up again. It repeats till my sleepiness is gone. I tried taking melatonin and not using my phone, but I end upawake for hours.

your general commenting policy

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).

“Administrativa” like:—

If Jesus was crucified by Governor Pontius Pilate, why does the Quran deny his death?

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

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

Why do gun lovers think their right to own a weapon supercedes everyone else's right to be safe and not be shot?

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

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

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 are people so rude to debt collector’s? I am one and I am so tired of being mistreated. We are under paid and then have to deal with the most ungrateful, and disrespectful people. We aren’t customer service. Don’t get mad at us because YOU owe.

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

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

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

There is any scientific evidence that we live in a sphere. Why do others say that we lives in a flat Earth but there is no evidence that they have proven the existence of a flat earth?

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.

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

When did bestiality first occur to you and how did it happen the first time? Was it a deliberate decision or it just happened and you allowed it?

UH-OH…

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 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.

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

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

Addressing your question more directly:—

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

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

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

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.
