Listly: Listicles For WordPress

By Milan Kaneria

Description

Listly 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:

  • Top 10 Everyday Life Hacks in 10 Seconds or Less
  • 7 Lessons Everyone Can Learn from Getting Vulnerable

Huge Fan, Great Plugin

September 3, 2016
I am a huge fan of List.ly and use them all the time on our three WordPress sites. This plugin makes it even easier. I would recommend checking them out for sure!

Just a moneygrabber

September 3, 2016
The plugin seems nice until you install it and you have to pay after you build 3 lists $9,99- per month, and you don't even own your lists, so you have to pay them and you give them your content so you're stuck with them, useless, your better of building your list by hand then have some third party busines blackmail you into using their service (or else you lose your lists)
