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

English is the blog’s language, but other languages may appear occasionally (hopefully with an English translation).
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).
Oh, well done, bruv. You’ve made the second biggest blogging mistake.
What should I expect after a BBL surgery?
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.
Who your blog is aimed at, or who might be interested
You need to understand why you yourself should be doing the writing for your own blog — certainly for the first two years.

If you’ve just launched your blog, it should already have 3–6 empty placeholder posts autogenerated by the platform or system.
Your contact details (email at a minimum)
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 About page will always be your blog’s most-viewed item and click magnet.
Open them and fill with pre-prepared copy.
It’s that straightforward.
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.

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 3rd placeholder post
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.
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.
I hope you didn’t delete them.

Even news agencies like AP, Reuters, AFP, etc (with hundreds of reporters each worldwide) have their own overall ‘corporate’ and ‘news’ persona or voice.
This is because you’re meant to fill them with pre-prepared copy (text and pictures).

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.
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.
