The 4th, 5th and 6th placeholder posts
What is one fantasy you have never told anyone about but really want to do?
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 About page will always be your blog’s most-viewed item and click magnet.

Oh, well done, bruv. You’ve made the second biggest blogging mistake.
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.
If you’ve just launched your blog, it should already have 3–6 empty placeholder posts autogenerated by the platform or system.
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.
I hope you didn’t delete them.

On the balance of all practical probabilities, it’s easier (and cheaper) to write your own stuff.
Addressing your question more directly:—

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

It’s that straightforward.
You need to understand why you yourself should be doing the writing for your own blog — certainly for the first two years.
Every day, around 7 million blog posts are published on the Internet. You’re fighting for attention and breathing space even with a voice.

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 2ND PLACEHOLDER POST
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
Whatever the editorial window or niche, your blog has a ‘voice.’ That voice is you.

English is the blog’s language, but other languages may appear occasionally (hopefully with an English translation).
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.
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).
This blog updates every Tuesday at 8 p.m. EST (midnight UTC, Wednesday).
“What if I’ve already deleted those placeholder posts? What if I’ve posted a few posts already?”
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.
