Your blog’s editorial window (“niche,” although that’s the wrong word) — what your blog is generally about or tends to focus on
“What if I’ve already deleted those placeholder posts? What if I’ve posted a few posts already?”

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).
Whatever the editorial window or niche, your blog has a ‘voice.’ That voice is you.
There’s no point in backtracking. Don’t bother to re-create those placeholder posts.

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 succeed, you succeed. If you fail, you fail. It doesn’t matter either way because you still have to do some elementary things.
UH-OH…
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 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…
