Could someone tell me what is a healthy amount of backlinks the lifestyle blog should have?
There are some which go up to 800k.

There is no one, perfect amount - it depends on niche/country/competitors/backlins quality etc.

This ^. Do what your competitors are doing, just do it better.

Quality over quantity though.

It's probably just reffering backlinks. Look at reffering domains - imho it's much more important

Busy winter is coming it seems! JK...

Then you are against huge authority sites. I suggest you narrow down your target market a little.

Focus on the quality of backlinks. Analyze their competitor backlink profile, prefer niche relevant links and links from unique domains.

Ok, now a person with 800k backlinks dropped on 13k only, is it normal?

Could they still be high-quality backlinks?

The amount of the backlinks cannot be calculated, it depends on the niche and the competition. And it is always better to have quality backlinks instead of increasing the quantity.

The main thing you really need is diversity.

Even with a few links that are all identical in nature can give you real issues.

So make sure:

• Links from diverse website types (blogs, ecommerce, government, newspaper, etc)
  
  
• That all your anchor text is diverse too - so not having 'buy this' as your anchor for every link.
  
  
• Links are drip fed - you don't want 100 in one day and then nothing the next day.
