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

the blog’s main language

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.

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

Is it socially acceptable for individuals to wear clothing typically associated with the opposite gender? What are some reasons for or against this practice?

Twitter (now X ‘ecks’): xxx

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 hope you didn’t delete them.

Thinking from a spiritual perspective, can we say that the journey in recovering from narcissistic abuse a battle of spiritual warfare? Any thoughts on this?

UH-OH…

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

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

What was your wildest experience as a lesbian?

the blog’s launch date and time

Example:—

Can shaving hair by Veet in our vagina cause diseases?

The 3rd placeholder post

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

Why did Mark Lane harass Helen Markham during an illegally recorded telephone conversation to misidentify Lee Harvey Oswald who she witnessed as the shooter of Tippit?

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

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

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 aren't F1 cars popular on the street?

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

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.

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

Why are Democrats at Q so desperate that they keep taking down my links to comments that prove the residents in Ohio have been filing complaints about the Haitians eating the local wildlife from ponds in the local parks? Election interference

The 4th, 5th and 6th placeholder posts

THE 2ND PLACEHOLDER POST

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

Why didn't people like the Game of Thrones ending?

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

What are the differences between INFJ-T and INFJ A?

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

It’s that straightforward.

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.

If Russia needs the resources to fund the war in Ukraine, why doesn’t it throw open its doors to visa free western tourism? Enough people would be interested, & it would start to get some hard currency as €, CHF, £, SEK, $, JPY in the tills at shops.

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

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

Why is Canada letting too many Indians in Canada?

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 contact details (email at a minimum)

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

Why don’t people show patriot Donald Trump the respect he deserves? He’s successful in business, politics, and with the ladies.

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.

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

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

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 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.

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.

Addressing your question more directly:—

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…

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

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