For me the toughest part of churning out lots of content isn't the research and writing, it's deciding what to write about. Here's what I do when I need to generate a lot of content:
Say I'm writing blog posts about flea collars for dogs
I'll open a text file and just copy random facts into it from researching flea collars.
For example: I find that most collars are made with a combination of the chemicals: 2-isopropoxyphenyl N-methyl carbamate, 3-(1-methylbutyl) phenyl N-methyl carbamate, I-napthyl N-isopropyl carbamate,
and some are made with: 2-chloro-1(2,4,5-trichlorophenyl) vinyl dimethyl phosphate
Now from that factiod alone, I can write articles on whether the first type is safe, whether the second is safe, whether one type is more effective, and whether there are alternatives to the 2 main types - 4 potentially informative articles from one little fact! During your research, you discover that 2 of the chemicals have been shown to cause allergic reactions - that's 2 more!
You just fill your text file with a lot of facts like this, then expand on the facts in terms of how they affect your would-be customers.
If it's not a niche you're intimately familiar with, the first few will be really slow because you'll have to to a lot of research. After that first few, you'll get into a groove and be writing them quickly, virtually off the top of your head.
Anyway, that's what I do if I need 50 pages of genuine, informative content. If you just need fluff, I guess I'd suggest paying someone a buck apiece to churn them out for you...
