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

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

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

Have you ever regretted not hitting on a older women?

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.

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.

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.
