I've got some insight into this (Several friends, now multi-millionaires ran and flipped tens of sites like this) They're mostly written by low paid content writers in 3rd world countries such as Vietnam and the Philippines. Primarily to drive affiliate traffic to Amazon and other retailers with affiliate schemes. They all operate on a similar format - 10 items with good reviews, write 300 words about each product, rinse, repeat, profit.

What a world where people can become multi-millionaires in this way while nurses and teachers can't even get cost of living adjustments.
