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.
Why are white women dating more black guys than ever?
Addressing your question more directly:—
It’s that straightforward.
“What if I’ve already deleted those placeholder posts? What if I’ve posted a few posts already?”
I'm pretty sure that my dog is transgender, how would I go about transitioning it?
I hope you didn’t delete them.

Oh, well done, bruv. You’ve made the second biggest blogging mistake.
Open them and fill with pre-prepared copy.
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.
Example:—
If you’ve just launched your blog, it should already have 3–6 empty placeholder posts autogenerated by the platform or system.
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.
Can I use the LEG PRESS to build muscle?
Open it for editing. Fill it with your own text on:—
The second placeholder post is empty. Use it to introduce your blog and yourself.
Even news agencies like AP, Reuters, AFP, etc (with hundreds of reporters each worldwide) have their own overall ‘corporate’ and ‘news’ persona or voice.

How do you handle family members who ask for handouts?
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 succeed, you succeed. If you fail, you fail. It doesn’t matter either way because you still have to do some elementary things.
On the balance of all practical probabilities, it’s easier (and cheaper) to write your own stuff.
What is the best way to end a relationship with someone who has future plans with you?
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.
The 4th, 5th and 6th placeholder posts
Is it okay if I sleep with my brother without my husband knowing?
Your blog’s editorial window (“niche,” although that’s the wrong word) — what your blog is generally about or tends to focus on

What are some signs he is deeply in love with you?
There’s no point in backtracking. Don’t bother to re-create those placeholder posts.
THE 1ST PLACEHOLDER POST: ‘Hello, world!’
THE 2ND PLACEHOLDER POST
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.
What is one fantasy you have never told anyone about but really want to do?
Just carry on from where you are. Stay on target, Luke.
The 3rd placeholder post
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.
What is the cost of implementing synchronized traffic lights in a mid-sized city?
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.

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.

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).
Every day, around 7 million blog posts are published on the Internet. You’re fighting for attention and breathing space even with a voice.
This blog updates every Tuesday at 8 p.m. EST (midnight UTC, Wednesday).
