Top List
This pattern presents a clean, modern, and highly readable ranked list layout suitable for any type of “Top X” content—tools, products, services, places, books, tips, apps, and more. Each list item features: A bold, colored number badge on the left A spacious, card-style description block on the right Soft borders, rounded corners, and subtle spacing for a polished look A centered title and subtitle at the top give context to the entire list. The minimalist, professional appearance makes this pattern ideal for comparison articles, affiliate posts, recommendation lists, curated collections, “editor’s picks,” or general overview content where ranked order matters.

How to Use This Pattern
Insert the Pattern
Add the pattern into your Gutenberg editor wherever you want to display a ranked or curated list.
Customize Title & Subtitle
Update these to reflect the topic of your list—e.g., Top Travel Destinations, Best Productivity Apps, Top 10 Marketing Tools, etc.
Edit Each Ranked Item
Replace the text with your chosen items.
Update the numbers to match your order.
Duplicate or delete list cards to adjust the total count.
Optional Enhancements
Add icons, small images, or brand logos inside each card.
Convert list items into links (e.g., affiliate links, product pages).
Adjust badge color or background styling to match your site’s design.
Make It Your Own
Use Gutenberg block controls to tweak spacing, borders, or typography. The layout remains flexible for any list format.
