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

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

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

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.

Why do people hate fat people so much, even people who aren't exactly supermodels themselves? It seems like such a deep, passionate hatred, like they're offended by fat people just existing. Fat people didn't do anything to them, so why hate them?

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

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

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).

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

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.

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

Hello I am 17 year old boy and I am interested in transgender why?

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

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

the blog’s launch date and time

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

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

The 3rd placeholder post

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 succeed, you succeed. If you fail, you fail. It doesn’t matter either way because you still have to do some elementary things.

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 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.

Can it be true that people know your name, not your story, they’ve heard what you’ve done, but not what you’ve been through, so take their opinions of you with a grain of salt?

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.

The 4th, 5th and 6th placeholder posts

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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