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.

What are some tips for balancing chores, work, and family life as an adult with children?
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 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 is it rare for someone to despise both the Democrats and Republicans?
This is because you’re meant to fill them with pre-prepared copy (text and pictures).

THE 2ND PLACEHOLDER POST
It’s that straightforward.
There’s no point in backtracking. Don’t bother to re-create those placeholder posts.

your general commenting policy
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.
You need to understand why you yourself should be doing the writing for your own blog — certainly for the first two years.

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.

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).
Open it for editing. Fill it with your own text on:—
Just carry on from where you are. Stay on target, Luke.
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…
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.
Oh, well done, bruv. You’ve made the second biggest blogging mistake.
THE 1ST PLACEHOLDER POST: ‘Hello, world!’

Addressing your question more directly:—
Every day, around 7 million blog posts are published on the Internet. You’re fighting for attention and breathing space even with a voice.
UH-OH…
If you’ve just launched your blog, it should already have 3–6 empty placeholder posts autogenerated by the platform or system.
On the balance of all practical probabilities, it’s easier (and cheaper) to write your own stuff.
The About page will always be your blog’s most-viewed item and click magnet.
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.
Whatever the editorial window or niche, your blog has a ‘voice.’ That voice is you.
