Perfect format for Instagram carousels
Every successful travel blog, Instagram account, and YouTube channel uses Top 10 lists. Here's why they work:
Pair with travel captions, destination hashtags, and our content calendar for maximum reach.
Not generic "best restaurants." Get specific: "Top 10 Rooftop Restaurants with Ocean Views in Miami" or "Top 10 Cheap Eats Locals Love in Barcelona."
"Top 10 Boutique Hotels Under $150 in Lisbon" or "Top 10 Airbnbs with Pools in Bali." Specificity = higher engagement and affiliate commissions.
"Top 10 Free Things to Do in London" or "Top 10 Adrenaline Adventures in New Zealand." Problem-solving lists get saved obsessively.
"Top 10 Places Tourists Miss in Rome" or "Top 10 Secret Beaches in Thailand." Everyone wants insider knowledge. This is gold.
"Top 10 Instagram Spots in Santorini" or "Top 10 Sunrise Locations in Yosemite." Content creators eat this up. Massive saves.
"Top 10 Ways to Travel Paris Under $50/Day" or "Top 10 Free Museum Days in NYC." Practical value = viral potential.
Each list item becomes one slide. Slide 1 equals hook/title, Slides 2 through 11 equal each item with photo, Final slide equals CTA. Carousel posts tend to perform well. Use our grid planner to visualize.
Turn each list into a detailed blog post. Can rank on Google for years. Add photos, expand descriptions, include maps. Monetize with ads and affiliate links. Get ideas with our blog idea generator.

Link hotels (Booking.com), tours (GetYourGuide), restaurants (OpenTable). Top 10 lists convert better than generic "about" pages.
Title formula: "Top 10 [Specific Thing] in [Destination] ([Year])" Example: "Top 10 Vegan Restaurants in Austin (2025)"
Include in title/description: Target keyword 2 to 3 times naturally. "things to do," "best places," "where to eat."
Add location details: Neighborhood names, addresses, proximity to landmarks. Google loves local specificity.
Update annually: Refresh your list each year. Change the year in the title. Google rewards fresh content.
Get backlinks: Share your list in travel communities, Reddit, Facebook groups. More links equal higher rankings.
Pinterest strategy: Create a pin for your list. Pinterest drives significant travel traffic. Design a vertical image with your title using our graphic templates.
Pro tip: Create 10 different Top 10 lists for one destination. Interlink them all. Dominate search results for that city.
