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

It’s that straightforward.

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.

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.

Do you as a gay male enjoy the feeling of getting a penis in your anus?

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

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…

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).

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

How did the Nazis figure out whether a person or community is 'Aryan' or not?

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).

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

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

What is something you have to share?

your general commenting policy

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.

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.

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

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

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

How can one justify in Sweden that total subsidies for public green energy initiatives being approximately 8.2 billion SEK per year? Electric cars at market price typically cost an average of 500,000 SEK which is above household budgets.

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

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.

Can being annoyed be a sign of getting angry?

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

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

What happens to single guys when they get older?

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

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

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

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.

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.
