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

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 blog’s launch date and time

THE 2ND PLACEHOLDER POST

Did you use the internet during the DOS era? Can you describe your experience? How were images displayed on the black screen when everything was just text-based commands?

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

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

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

UH-OH…

How do I get over a long-term relationship breakup?

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

“Administrativa” like:—

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 International Boxing Association said that Khelif and Lin competing in Paris Olympics were disqualified from the tournament for testing positive for XY chromosomes which give an unfair advantage in the women’s division. What do you think?

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

John “Ramenista” Smith

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.

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

Why are Boomers so vehemently opposed to student loan forgiveness?

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

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

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…

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

Why are black people seen as scary or a threat to some people?

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

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.

Addressing your question more directly:—

What is the difference between anxiety and depressive neurosis?

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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 4th, 5th and 6th placeholder posts

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

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

It’s that straightforward.

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.

I hope you didn’t delete them.

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).

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).
