The 4th, 5th and 6th 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.

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

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

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).

Every day, around 7 million blog posts are published on the Internet. You’re fighting for attention and breathing space even with a voice.

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…

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

Would you join a gym or workout at home and why?

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.

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

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

Whenever I write a novel, I struggle with the end, should I make it open? Should the good win or the bad win? Sometime I don't even have an ending, what should I do?

Who your blog is aimed at, or who might be interested

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.

What do you think of Obito Uchiha?

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.

Addressing your question more directly:—

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

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

Why do ugly men flirt with girls that are really hot?

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

The 3rd placeholder post

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

Why do Argentinians use "vos" instead of "tú" in informal speech?

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.

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

THE 2ND PLACEHOLDER POST

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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.
