This blog has 1058 pages of material. How? Each post has a fairly clickbaity title and seems to summarize someone else's work/research, but is it really all one guy working full time on getting this material together? Is he farming it out to contractors?

He probably spent 10,000 hours at it. I'm just guessing though.
https://www.quora.com/Who-is-Eric-Barker-and-why-has-his-blo... tl;dr he is a lifestyle blogger (assuming the answer is legit)
First post is in 2009, 5 blogs per page, so 2 posts per day, every day, for 7 years. Not impossible, but you've got to be very motivated.
He seems to have 1 post per week in recent months though. Slacker.
the traffic, money (from the amazon links) and attention he gets is a great motivator to keep making more posts.
