The Science of Why Lists Go Viral: How to Write a Listicle that Readers Will Love

A listicle is a piece of writing presented in the form of a list. We’ve all seen them. 5 Ways to Grow Your Passive Income is an example. What is the science behind why listicles go viral?  One of the reasons we love lists is that we don’t love reading really long articles. Have you heard about the concept of TLDR? That stands for Too Long; Didn’t Read. Whenever we see a bunch of words on a page, our brain works to determine whether the content is valuable and whether it’s worth taking the time to read.

Listicles tend to go viral because they’re scannable. You can see the title and quickly review the points.

 Would you like to learn how to write a Listicle that people will love? I can show you how to have lists at your fingertips in seconds. The software I use has templates and one of them is for listicles. I recommend you choose the template with 3-5 points. Give the software a topic and it will produce a listicle for you. I share exactly how it works in the short video at the top of this blog.

Once you’ve got your listicle you can use it in a variety of ways. Make a social media post, create a live video, and base your next blog on the list. Using content that takes seconds to create in a variety of ways like this can save you so much time. You can try out the software I use for FREE for the first 5 days OR 10,000 words, whichever comes first. You can learn more and check it out here.
