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

Example:—

the blog’s main language

Will you share your wife? Can she take both of us at the same time?

THE 2ND PLACEHOLDER POST

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 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.

How should I go about convincing my mother that my foreign online boyfriend isn't out to get my holes or scam me?

The 3rd placeholder post

Addressing your question more directly:—

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.

Why do people always talk about Ohio as it's a dangerous city?

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

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.

UH-OH…

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

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

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

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.

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.

Has Great Britain ever been considered a "hyper-power" like the United States or Russia are currently considered? If not, why?

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

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.

It’s that straightforward.

Which is the worst Bollywood movie you have ever seen and why?

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

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

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 blog’s launch date and time

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.

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

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.
