How to write a listicle in 2021?
Listicles are a great way to showcase examples in any niche.
Listicles are articles formatted into a list, usually focused around a particular niche, like:
- 5 best gaming laptops in 2020
- 7 ways to lose weight at home in 2021
- 11 software tools for digital marketers

One example is Mangools KWFinder, a simple yet powerful tool, that allows you to investigate keywords on your own. In our example you could start looking for “laptop” and then the software would suggest similar terms like “gaming laptops” or “acer laptop”. Everything spiced by statistics of how much are people actually looking for a given keyword across locations and languages.
