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

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

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 3rd placeholder post

In the TV show Supernatural, why is God portrayed as cruel?

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

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

Why cant I sleep on my side after getting my covid vaccine? I just got the shot and I’ve been overstimulated from not being able to sleep, my arm is very sore and it hurts so much to move and I just want to sleep but it hurts if I lay on either side

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.

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).

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?

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 4th, 5th and 6th placeholder posts

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

Do you love fat pussy?

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

Your contact details (email at a minimum)

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.

Everything You Need to Know About MicroSD Express - WIRED

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.

Example:—

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.

Why isn't bestiality illegal in most states? If children can't consent, then animals DEFINITELY can't consent. Why is being a pedophile a crime but zoophilia is not?

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.

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

the blog’s launch date and time

How do I stop having work crushes because I only keep getting disappointed almost every day as I keep seeing they don’t like me back and won’t ever ask me out?

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.

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.

the blog’s main language

I hope you didn’t delete them.

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

Open them and fill with pre-prepared copy.

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

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

It’s that straightforward.

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

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

UH-OH…
