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.

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.

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

What did your best friend do that ended your friendship?

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

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.

How do I know if I am a bitch? I try to be a nice person but people often jokingly call me a bitch. My family calls me a bitch sometimes too.

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

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

What is the Abu Shusha massacre in Palestine?

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

Addressing your question more directly:—

Why am I so wanting to suck a penis?

the blog’s launch date and time

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.

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

☆ what's the thing that made u fell in love with your bias?

The 3rd placeholder post

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 can contact me below (for blog and off-blog matters) or use the Contact Form (click here).

Republicans, why do you support Kamala Harris over Donald Trump?

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

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.

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

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.

Why does a narcissist act like it's nothing when they hurt you?

It’s that straightforward.

During the Atlmark incident in 1940, the Brit war criminals violated Norwegian neutrality. Hitler could then justify invading Norway. Have the Brits ever apologized for violating Norwegian neutrality?

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.

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

We white women don't like white men. Do you have any issue with that?

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

I hope you didn’t delete them.

The 4th, 5th and 6th placeholder posts

How is bestiality wrong, but killing animals for sport or trophies is considered okay?

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

UH-OH…

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

What is the logic behind the porn being legal but not prostitution? Isn't it the same thing in essence?

Open them and fill with pre-prepared copy.

Why am I peeing so much without drinking a lot of water? I checked my blood sugar and it is normal. Could it be something else?

THE 2ND PLACEHOLDER POST

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).

Example:—

What are the most extreme examples of hypocrisy?

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

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

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

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.

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 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…

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

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

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