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

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

The About page will always be your blog’s most-viewed item and click magnet.
This is your first actual post — the first piece of ‘meat’ for your blog. Open it and fill it with pre-prepared copy.
There’s no point in backtracking. Don’t bother to re-create those placeholder posts.

UH-OH…
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.
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.

Open them and fill with pre-prepared copy.

Open it for editing. Fill it with your own text on:—
Who your blog is aimed at, or who might be interested
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.

If you’ve just launched your blog, it should already have 3–6 empty placeholder posts autogenerated by the platform or system.
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.
Oh, well done, bruv. You’ve made the second biggest blogging mistake.
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.
English is the blog’s language, but other languages may appear occasionally (hopefully with an English translation).

the blog’s launch date and time
You need to understand why you yourself should be doing the writing for your own blog — certainly for the first two years.
At what stage in your life did you realize, "No, I can't do this any more" and walk out? Why?
Your contact details (email at a minimum)
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.
“What if I’ve already deleted those placeholder posts? What if I’ve posted a few posts already?”
The second placeholder post is empty. Use it to introduce your blog and yourself.
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 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…
THE 2ND PLACEHOLDER POST
I hope you didn’t delete them.
Every day, around 7 million blog posts are published on the Internet. You’re fighting for attention and breathing space even with a voice.
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.
This is because you’re meant to fill them with pre-prepared copy (text and pictures).
This blog updates every Tuesday at 8 p.m. EST (midnight UTC, Wednesday).
THE 1ST PLACEHOLDER POST: ‘Hello, world!’
Example:—
The 4th, 5th and 6th placeholder posts

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