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.

It’s that straightforward.

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

The 4th, 5th and 6th placeholder posts

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

Your contact details (email at a minimum)
The 3rd placeholder post
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.
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.
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.

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