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

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

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

Addressing your question more directly:—

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

What is the sluttiest thing your wife has ever done?

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 blog’s main language

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

If sea levels were rising, wouldn't the acreage of coastal salt marshes increase? Are they?

THE 2ND PLACEHOLDER POST

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.

Even news agencies like AP, Reuters, AFP, etc (with hundreds of reporters each worldwide) have their own overall ‘corporate’ and ‘news’ persona or voice.

What should I do to stop being angered easily?

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.

My boyfriend always verbally abuse me and makes me cry. If I try to tell him how hurt I was, he says to me he loves me and can't hurt me but always abuse me. Why?

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.

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.

Why do people say African Americans act the way they do because they're poor, when the ones with money act the same?

Just carry on from where you are. Stay on target, Luke.

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.

My waist finally looks like how it did before I had kids but I didn’t lose weight. Why am I still 15 lbs from my starting weight?

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

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

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

This blog was born on Wednesday, September 18, 2024, at 7:21 p.m. EST (23:21 UTC).

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

What was your embarrassing moment in front of your father-in-law as an Indian daughter-in-law?

It’s that straightforward.

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

Example:—

How can you tell if someone is cunning?

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

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

The 4th, 5th and 6th placeholder posts

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).

Open them and fill with pre-prepared copy.

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

The 3rd placeholder post

“What if I’ve already deleted those placeholder posts? What if I’ve posted a few posts already?”

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

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.

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.

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…

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…

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

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

the blog’s launch date and time

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