Whatever the editorial window or niche, your blog has a ‘voice.’ That voice is you.
This is because you’re meant to fill them with pre-prepared copy (text and pictures).

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 launch date and time
“What if I’ve already deleted those placeholder posts? What if I’ve posted a few posts already?”
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.

If you’ve just launched your blog, it should already have 3–6 empty placeholder posts autogenerated by the platform or system.
Who your blog is aimed at, or who might be interested

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.
It’s that straightforward.

your general commenting policy
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.
UH-OH…
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.
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 blog’s main language
Even news agencies like AP, Reuters, AFP, etc (with hundreds of reporters each worldwide) have their own overall ‘corporate’ and ‘news’ persona or voice.

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

The 3rd placeholder post
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.

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…
