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).

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.

How can I fall asleep fast at night?

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 3rd placeholder post

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

Can you share a story of someone who had a lucky experience while hitchhiking?

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

I hope you didn’t delete them.

Why do nearly all of the answers on Quora have “read more” and when I click on it, I get a virus warning every time? Has anyone else had this happen?

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

your general commenting policy

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

What does it mean if someone asks if it’s pink?

The 4th, 5th and 6th placeholder posts

THE 2ND PLACEHOLDER POST

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.

Example:—

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

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

Did Obito ever fully redeem himself in everyone's eyes?

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

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

the blog’s launch date and time

The Roman Empire at the time of Christ kept meticulous records. Why then, is there no record of the trial of Jesus?

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.

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.

the blog’s main language

How can Democrats not feel hypocritical when they urge Trump not to be vengeful should be become president when the Democrats are trying to put Trump into prison?

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

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

Why should the US public listen to Lauren Boebert, the queen of hypocrisy tell us, "We need morals back in our nation" when her real-time video is the heartbeat of immoral? Why does her audio not match her video?

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

Addressing your question more directly:—

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

Have you ever dealt with a Christian narcissist?

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…

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

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.

Which current F1 drivers should switch teams based on historical patterns?

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.

It’s that straightforward.

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

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.

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

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

Open them and fill with pre-prepared copy.

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.

UH-OH…

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

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

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.

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