Content Marketing on Your Blog with Lists

Let's face it. Blogging IS Content Marketing. 

As you plan and organize the content you write that will attract the right readers, it's generally agreed that it's good to mix up the style of posts you write. You want to keep your readers interested and engaged. Consider how-to posts, case studies, Q&A, polls and interviews to name a few styles. However, by far the most popular type of post is the List Post. 

List posts are easy to scan and read, and they tend to get shared a lot.

In my travels around the web, I found a very cool list about why list articles are great for content marketing. You can even add your own reason to the list by clicking through see the full list.

What would you add to this list?

Having lists in your blog content can help you, like scaning more easily your information, but it can be a negatve thing too. If you use too many lists to write your articles you can provide a superficial quality of your articles. You have to know how to combine them to make them easy to read and high quality content in the same time.
