English is the blog’s language, but other languages may appear occasionally (hopefully with an English translation).
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.

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 1ST PLACEHOLDER POST: ‘Hello, world!’
Whatever the editorial window or niche, your blog has a ‘voice.’ That voice is you.
Overthinking is killing me day-by-day. What should I do?
There’s no point in backtracking. Don’t bother to re-create those placeholder posts.
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
“What if I’ve already deleted those placeholder posts? What if I’ve posted a few posts already?”
When sharing a wife, is it best with your buddy or a stranger?
Oh, well done, bruv. You’ve made the second biggest blogging mistake.
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…

On the balance of all practical probabilities, it’s easier (and cheaper) to write your own stuff.
I hope you didn’t delete them.

the blog’s launch date and time
What are the most significant instances of romantic jealousy in the Harry Potter series?
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.
Your blog’s editorial window (“niche,” although that’s the wrong word) — what your blog is generally about or tends to focus on
This blog updates every Tuesday at 8 p.m. EST (midnight UTC, Wednesday).
What was your best revenge story?
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.
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.
You need to understand why you yourself should be doing the writing for your own blog — certainly for the first two years.
The second placeholder post is empty. Use it to introduce your blog and yourself.

This is your first actual post — the first piece of ‘meat’ for your blog. Open it and fill it with pre-prepared copy.
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).
Even news agencies like AP, Reuters, AFP, etc (with hundreds of reporters each worldwide) have their own overall ‘corporate’ and ‘news’ persona or voice.
Just carry on from where you are. Stay on target, Luke.
Every day, around 7 million blog posts are published on the Internet. You’re fighting for attention and breathing space even with a voice.
how frequent the blog is updated (i.e. what is your posting day — every Tuesday at 8 p.m. is a good starting point)

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’re running a hobby-horse blog, you generally don’t pay because then you’d be inviting people to guest-post out of interest.

The 3rd placeholder post
If you’ve just launched your blog, it should already have 3–6 empty placeholder posts autogenerated by the platform or system.
