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

UH-OH…

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

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.

According to the Gita, how do I abandon fruits of my karma? Should I donate my whole salary and stay hungry?

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

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

I hope you didn’t delete them.

Why do flat-Earthers think the Earth is flat?

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).

Example:—

The 4th, 5th and 6th placeholder posts

What are some very specific groups of people you just cannot stand?

the blog’s main language

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

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

Has anyone tried bestiality and been caught?

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

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.

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

A surprising study found hints of biological activity on a distant planet. Now, scientists say there’s more to the story - Yahoo

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

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.

Where are the big girls? This is the first time I've seen a bigger lady boy and that's awesome .. you should post more of them here, nothing wrong with a thick black lady

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

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

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

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

Can the effects of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) be reversed?

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.

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 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.

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.

It’s that straightforward.

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…

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

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

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

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

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

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 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.

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.
