Listly on AngelList
Listly exists because humans love numbered lists. To quote Hubspot's Halligan &
Shah “Our species is drawn to numbered lists” via their book Inbound Marketing.
Fact: List posts get viewed and shared more than other content. Analytics drive
publishers to create 30% of content as numbered list posts > "10 ways to ...", "7
things you must ..." etc
So what's the problem? Today, people want to participate and be social with the
content they consume. HTML lists don't cut it.
Videos have YouTube, slides have Slideshare and now lists have Listly.
Listly makes lis collaborative, interactive and embeddable.
We help brands, publishers and bloggers create engagement live inside blog
posts.
We blend the crowdsourcing and crowdranking of Reddit to create curated lists
of content that you can moderate. We help you grow your investment in content
by empowering your community to keep your content fresh and ever changing
