One update per week or the content in general isn't why they are successful though.

They are successful only because of their "power in numbers" affiliate business model. They've got a lot of affiliates sending new sales that make up for a low retention rate.

Such large sites can also make their money in more alternative methods than smaller sites can.

I'd never apply the business ideas behind a large site to a small site. Many of them simply can't be scaled down, and slacking on the members area is one of them.
