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

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).
Open them and fill with pre-prepared copy.

Why am I not attracted to masculine men? Why do I like more feminine attributes on a man?
On the balance of all practical probabilities, it’s easier (and cheaper) to write your own stuff.
If you’ve just launched your blog, it should already have 3–6 empty placeholder posts autogenerated by the platform or system.
The About page will always be your blog’s most-viewed item and click magnet.
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.

the blog’s main language
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 1ST PLACEHOLDER POST: ‘Hello, world!’
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 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.

Whatever the editorial window or niche, your blog has a ‘voice.’ That voice is you.
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.
The second placeholder post is empty. Use it to introduce your blog and yourself.
THE 2ND PLACEHOLDER POST
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).
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.
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 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.
Even news agencies like AP, Reuters, AFP, etc (with hundreds of reporters each worldwide) have their own overall ‘corporate’ and ‘news’ persona or voice.

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