I work in the entertainment industry and I know that most comedians/improv' guys and girls work to build a massive social media presence. If you're funny and proud of your work, I would say reach out to someone on twitter to see if you can get a retweet. Also, they do guest blogging all the time. Just reach out to the community. If you're good, you'll get noticed.
Thank you, I will try that. I'm not a improv' but I do want to be a better humor writer. I'm still in the "write as much as you can and listen to the editor instead of defending every single word" phase.

Depending on the type of pictures that you have, don't forget about Pinterest as well. If you have funny jokes, think about putting them as a quote on an image and posting it to Pinterest.
Well, they're basically memes and I come up with the captions. A few times they're pictures I've taken with captions. Would that work on Pinterest?

You should increase your article count to at least one per day; and that would barely just give you a push. You said that this is the main attraction of your website, so I think that it's rather important to have fresh daily content.
I wish I could, but it's hard to come up with a good idea and then write it in a funny and informative way. And then there's the fact that I also have to write tons of other stuff for a living. My goal is 1 article per week because I want to be consistent on the delivery. Of course, you make a good point and I'll try to improve on that.

Great work so far, it's good to see that your actually putting work into growing something and taking action. Keep building your quality content, monitization comes last. Did you implement a newsletter yet?
I work with an editor on this site, and she sends a newsletter each month.

I'd recommend that you carefully optimise every page for a a few different keywords, especially long tail. There are some great articles about increasing traffic by optimising your pages. Before writing articles spend some time on keyword research. You'll have a better chance of ranking them!
I thought Panda and Penguin had ended the keyword era and it was about the content now, but I will check that out anyway.

get on one of those old people's email lists. Those geriatrics have nothing better to do all day long than to spam all their friends with humorous, anti-Obama emails, etc...
How do I get such a list? And I don't know if it would work, as some articles have to do with technology and internet and things like that.

First of all, I want to thank everybody for your time and your advice. I also want to apologize because I realize I should have made the title clearer so people would know what it was about before clicking it.
From your suggestions, I think I'm on the right track, but I need to work much harder still. Again than you for your advice and your good wishes. I will keep checking this thread in case someone else has something to say.
