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

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

English is the blog’s language, but other languages may appear occasionally (hopefully with an English translation).
THE 2ND PLACEHOLDER POST
This is because you’re meant to fill them with pre-prepared copy (text and pictures).
how frequent the blog is updated (i.e. what is your posting day — every Tuesday at 8 p.m. is a good starting point)

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

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.
The About page will always be your blog’s most-viewed item and click magnet.
Your blog’s editorial window (“niche,” although that’s the wrong word) — what your blog is generally about or tends to focus on

I hope you didn’t delete them.
There’s no point in backtracking. Don’t bother to re-create those placeholder posts.

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

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

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

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…
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.
