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

The 4th, 5th and 6th placeholder posts

Example:—

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

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.

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

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

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

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.

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

A Salute to Brian Wilson: Darian Sahanaja on Growing Up on Brian, Then Basking in His Musical Inner Circle for a Quarter-Century - Variety

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 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.

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

'Materialists': Celine Song on Dating and Sex and the City's Influence - IndieWire

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

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.

Just carry on from where you are. Stay on target, Luke.

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).
