The 3rd placeholder post
You need to understand why you yourself should be doing the writing for your own blog — certainly for the first two years.
Has anyone ever had sex with their cousin? How did it start, and would you do it again?

Oh, well done, bruv. You’ve made the second biggest blogging mistake.
This is because you’re meant to fill them with pre-prepared copy (text and pictures).

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

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.

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 2ND PLACEHOLDER POST
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…

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.
“What if I’ve already deleted those placeholder posts? What if I’ve posted a few posts already?”
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 second placeholder post is empty. Use it to introduce your blog and yourself.
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.
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.

English is the blog’s language, but other languages may appear occasionally (hopefully with an English translation).
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.
Are there girls here who like group sex?

THE 1ST PLACEHOLDER POST: ‘Hello, world!’
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.
Whatever the editorial window or niche, your blog has a ‘voice.’ That voice is you.
The About page will always be your blog’s most-viewed item and click magnet.
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.
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.
Just carry on from where you are. Stay on target, Luke.
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.
