1 Place That Tracks Popularity Of Headlines Over The Net

What's interesting, the top story headlines
have in common is a number in them.

Should keep you up to date as to what's grabbing the public's attention
and how to use the same headline structure in your messaging.

Best,

    Wow...that is a LOT more list-based posts than I would have guessed.

    I wonder if they're ever trumped by non-list headlines.

      Those rankings are based from when they started to track them,
      therefore the all time winners have numbers in them.

      Not surprising. When I wrote for a community video-game website, at LEAST five of the top 10 most-read community submissions every month were lists.

      It probably has something to do with how easily "digestible" a list-type article is. People that click the links to read these articles go in knowing they can easily pick-and-choose what they want to read, since the article is broken up into clear sections.

      Numbers are fun!

    This list makes me sad.... This list is at least based on objective numbers, those lists are simply subjective! List-based articles are such a phenomenon these days, so I suppose they deserve these top spots. but still I would like to see a headline ranker/tracker which cuts out lists...they're not really news and are barely new information

    I'm being taken to a blank white page. I tried my other desktop, then my laptop, then my VPS, then hidemyass, and all of them show a blank white page.

    I get the same thing if I try to visit the root domain.

    Anyone else having this problem? I really want to see this site.
