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

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

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

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

According to Amy Schumer, John Cena was actually inside of her during the TrainWreck love scene. I thought that was illegal in Hollywood?

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

Your contact details (email at a minimum)

Addressing your question more directly:—

Why is pornography still alive and not illegal? Why doesn’t the government do about tricking women into them?

The 4th, 5th and 6th placeholder posts

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 blog’s launch date and time

Do empaths fall easier for abusive people?

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.

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

Why is our generation so unhappy?

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.

Which unexpected celebrity has done a bold or revealing photoshoot?

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

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

Does having the wrong address on my car insurance invalidate my policy?

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.

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.

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

What were the first few days, weeks, months and then years like after finding out about your spouses infidelity? How did your feelings, and yours & their approach to the situation change in the immediate aftermath compared to later down the line?

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.

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

Do you ever feel like you are doing good, but would do better if people hadn’t blamed you or even bothered you? I have gotten lonely, but I always am up to something (creating my destiny).

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.

I hope you didn’t delete them.

What are the psychological reasons behind an extreme obsession with another human being?

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

THE 2ND PLACEHOLDER POST

How do people who are deaf learn sign language? Is it typically taught by parents at a young age or are there programs available for learning it later in life?

Example:—

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

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 does Jesus mean in Revelation 3:3 when He states, "Wake up! Strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have found your deeds unfinished in the sight of my God?"

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

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

UH-OH…

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).

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
