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.
Open it for editing. Fill it with your own text on:—
Your blog’s editorial window (“niche,” although that’s the wrong word) — what your blog is generally about or tends to focus on
It’s that straightforward.
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’ve just launched your blog, it should already have 3–6 empty placeholder posts autogenerated by the platform or system.
Just carry on from where you are. Stay on target, Luke.
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).

You need to understand why you yourself should be doing the writing for your own blog — certainly for the first two years.
What does it mean when we dream about demons, ghosts, monsters, etc.?
Example:—
Whatever the editorial window or niche, your blog has a ‘voice.’ That voice is you.

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

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 succeed, you succeed. If you fail, you fail. It doesn’t matter either way because you still have to do some elementary things.
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.
The About page will always be your blog’s most-viewed item and click magnet.

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 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 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.
This blog updates every Tuesday at 8 p.m. EST (midnight UTC, Wednesday).
