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 2ND PLACEHOLDER POST

Do you think Trump is a bad a$$? Why or why not?

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

It’s that straightforward.

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.

Is it necessary for people to wear towels while showering at gyms? If so, what are some ways to prevent the towel from slipping off and exposing oneself?

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

Addressing your question more directly:—

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.

Why do people love to live alone in a house?

I hope you didn’t delete them.

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

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

Why are American women so ugly nowadays?

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.

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

Why should you never do drugs? Will this story absolutely shock you?

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).

UH-OH…

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

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.

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

Open them and fill with pre-prepared copy.

What are the potential economic consequences of the U.S. following Europe's lead on climate policies, as discussed in the article?

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 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.

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 do I randomly start sweating a lot in public (while waiting in line, in a new class, etc.) then start sweating more because I’m embarrassed that I’m sweating so much? Is this social anxiety?

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.

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

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

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

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

I'm looking for an answer from people who consider themselves "Gender Critical", or transphobic, or TERFs, and my question is this - Why would you refuse to use the pronouns someone wants? What does it cost you? Where's the harm?

Your contact details (email at a minimum)

your general commenting policy

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

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.

the blog’s main language

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 1ST PLACEHOLDER POST: ‘Hello, world!’

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…

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 3rd placeholder post

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

Twitter (now X ‘ecks’): xxx

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

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

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

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