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

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

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.

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 committed the unpardonable sin. God immediately punished me so that I can no longer think like before and my brain is as if paralyzed and does not work. I've tried everything (confession, repentance, etc.) nothing helps. Any advice?

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

From an axiology/value theory point of view, how can one say that a diverse society is better than a uniform one, especially given the negative effects of diversity (racism, sectarian conflict, problems arising from extreme cultural relativism)?

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.

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

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

the blog’s launch date and time

How did you cope when someone you love, dealing with hyper-independence and trauma, felt they needed space to heal alone? Were you able to support them without overstepping, and did you eventually reconnect? How did that journey unfold?

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

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

your general commenting policy

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

“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.

THE 2ND PLACEHOLDER POST

How did a computer scientist such as Geoffrey Hinton manage to win a Nobel Prize in physics when computer science already has its own Nobel Prize equivalent in the Turing Awards?

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.

I hope you didn’t delete them.

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

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.

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 4th, 5th and 6th placeholder posts

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

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

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.

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.

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.

It’s that straightforward.

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

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.
