The second placeholder post is empty. Use it to introduce your blog and yourself.

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…

Where are the gay people in India?

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

The 3rd placeholder post

Nutritionists reveal the surprising health benefits of maple syrup, including less belly fat - Earth.com

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.

You can contact me below (for blog and off-blog matters) or use the Contact Form (click here).

New discovery at the Grand Canyon has rewritten geology textbooks - Earth.com

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

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.

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 frequent the blog is updated (i.e. what is your posting day — every Tuesday at 8 p.m. is a good starting point)

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.

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.

Is it possible to make cars that run on water instead of gasoline or other fossil fuels? Why haven't we done so yet?

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.

It’s that straightforward.

What will the legacy of Jimmy Carter be in light of his death today at 100?

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

The 4th, 5th and 6th placeholder posts

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

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

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

John “Ramenista” Smith

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.

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

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

This is your first actual post — the first piece of ‘meat’ for your blog. Open it and fill it with pre-prepared copy.

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

Addressing your question more directly:—

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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