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!
But…authoring and keeping your numbered HTML lists updated on your blog is tedious. Especially if you want them to be visually appealing across Desktop, Tablet, and the Phone. How does Listly help?
<ul>
<li>Listly is embeddable. On any website, just like a YouTube video. </li>
<li>Listly is collaborative. Editable inline by you AND your audience. </li>
<li>Listly is responsive. Configures automatically based on device. </li>

Be the next BuzzFeed! The listicles plugin creates interactive blocks for generating lists in articles. Unlike traditional lists that use <code>ul</code> and <code>li</code>, a listicle is intended to provide each section with a header and multiple paragraphs per section.
With this plugin you can insert images, videos, and more inside each list item. The limit is your imagination.
This plugin was originally created for use on <a href="https://lezwatchtv.com" rel="nofollow ugc">LezWatch.TV</a>.
