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

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.

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 4th, 5th and 6th placeholder posts

What is something you have to share?

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

Are people who cite the 2nd Amendment honestly familiar with what it establishes?

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

Addressing your question more directly:—

What started the whole idea of femboys? What is the whole point of a femboy? Did a boy or a man just randomly start dressing or acting feminine or something?

“Administrativa” like:—

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

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.

Why are white men so obsessed with Asian women? I'm friends with people from all different backgrounds but I never see my other non-white male friends obsess over or talk about Asian women like I've seen the white ones do.

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

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.

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

I'm very sick. 72 years old. I thinking I'm losing my mind. My dead friend told me it's going to be okay. I could feel him. There is more…I don't know what but more.

Example:—

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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The 3rd placeholder post

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

It’s that straightforward.

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…

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).

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

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

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