The 4th, 5th and 6th placeholder posts
This blog was born on Wednesday, September 18, 2024, at 7:21 p.m. EST (23:21 UTC).
Why do the majority of feminists hate men (not all feminists)?
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 your first actual post — the first piece of ‘meat’ for your blog. Open it and fill it with pre-prepared copy.
your general commenting policy
This blog updates every Tuesday at 8 p.m. EST (midnight UTC, Wednesday).

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.
Addressing your question more directly:—
If you’ve just launched your blog, it should already have 3–6 empty placeholder posts autogenerated by the platform or system.
the blog’s launch date and time
Open them and fill with pre-prepared copy.
The second placeholder post is empty. Use it to introduce your blog and yourself.
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.
You need to understand why you yourself should be doing the writing for your own blog — certainly for the first two years.
“What if I’ve already deleted those placeholder posts? What if I’ve posted a few posts already?”
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.

Your blog’s editorial window (“niche,” although that’s the wrong word) — what your blog is generally about or tends to focus on
The 3rd placeholder post
English is the blog’s language, but other languages may appear occasionally (hopefully with an English translation).
Any straight men had a gay experience in the past? What was it and how did you feel?

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.
How often do prisoners try to escape from jail/prison, and how many of them succeed?
This is because you’re meant to fill them with pre-prepared copy (text and pictures).
I hope you didn’t delete them.
It’s that straightforward.
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.
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).
the blog’s main language
Why would my nipples hurt when I touch them?
THE 1ST PLACEHOLDER POST: ‘Hello, world!’
how frequent the blog is updated (i.e. what is your posting day — every Tuesday at 8 p.m. is a good starting point)
THE 2ND PLACEHOLDER POST
Why do men find women with bigger buttocks attractive?
Example:—
Even news agencies like AP, Reuters, AFP, etc (with hundreds of reporters each worldwide) have their own overall ‘corporate’ and ‘news’ persona or voice.
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.
What is your favourite colour and why?
On the balance of all practical probabilities, it’s easier (and cheaper) to write your own stuff.
Oh, well done, bruv. You’ve made the second biggest blogging mistake.

“Administrativa” like:—
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.
UH-OH…
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:—
Just carry on from where you are. Stay on target, Luke.
Whatever the editorial window or niche, your blog has a ‘voice.’ That voice is you.

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