The 20 Most Effective Numbers in Facebook Post Headlines. List-post headlines that include the number 10 garner more engagement on Facebook, on average, than headlines that include other numbers, according to recent research from Buzzsumo. The report was based on data from 100 million articles published on social media platforms between March 1 and May 10, 2017.

List-post headlines that include the number 5 is the second most-effective number in list headlines, followed by 15, 7, and 20. (See our previous article for more on effective headlines on Facebook.)
