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

You need to understand why you yourself should be doing the writing for your own blog — certainly for the first two years.
This is your first actual post — the first piece of ‘meat’ for your blog. Open it and fill it with pre-prepared copy.
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).
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.

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.
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.

the blog’s main language
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.
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 2ND PLACEHOLDER POST
It’s that straightforward.
Oh, well done, bruv. You’ve made the second biggest blogging mistake.
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.
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
Who your blog is aimed at, or who might be interested
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.
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…
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.
There’s no point in backtracking. Don’t bother to re-create those placeholder posts.
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.
