Listly

<a href="http://list.ly" rel="nofollow ugc">Listly</a> exists because the human species is drawn to numbered lists. Fact: List posts get viewed and shared more than other content. Analytics drive publishers to create 30% of content as numbered list posts. Listly makes it easy to create, maintain, and engage your readers with compelling list posts (also known as listicles in pop culture) right inside your WordPress site.
Examples:
<ul>
<li>Top 10 Everyday Life Hacks in 10 Seconds or Less</li>
<li>7 Lessons Everyone Can Learn from Getting Vulnerable</li>
<li>6 Simple Gluten Free Snack for the Holidays</li>
</ul>
Lists are emotional. They are easy to consume. They are fun to share!
