How to get my humorous hubs noticed?
I've changed the titles and the tags many times. What works?
One of the best ways might be to share them on StumbleUpon. Humor is usually well received here and might get you quite a few views.
I wish I knew the answer. But asking this question helps. Also ask it Forums - Knowledge Exchange.. they are also very helpful there. I find that the ones I featured on my profile get a lot of traffic. Pick a couple of your best ones and build it up to the hilt and the readers would just click on it. But that is inside traffic. I use SheToldMe to promote my hubs, FB and Myspace too. I have joined StumbleUpon too but I haven't really used it so far. I find that humour, poetry and stories are difficult to sell.. but I've just been here two months.. what do I know. I hope this helps a little.
Have a nice day,
Rosie
Hmm, humor is likely by its nature to be of more interest to some audiences than others, and possibly quite topical in nature as well. Getting the word out/back linking via blog comments on twitter might be one way forward, if you can identify potential connections that share some background to your subject area?
I use stumble upon. facebook, twitter ,kooday & now tribepro where others promote you ! Is in my hub , earn every week from Kooday!

I hope somebody can help. I now have 49 hubs, and yet not one of them are seen by the search engines. When I click on their stats, it says under 'search phrases,' no search terms to add.(list of words that appear commonly in searches that bring visitors to your hub.)It seems that all my hubs need...

What happened to the place for putting tags?I just noticed I can't add tags to hubs anymore. What happened? I must have missed something.

My goodness, I have read oh so many forums trying to figure out why my once flourishing hubs suddenly took a devastating nosedive. I have learned a lot from others comments & shared experience. I have also recognized that there seems to potentially be a number of possible reasons why many hubs...

I just finished reading John's interesting and informative hub. As writers, we understand how tough it is to come up with a good title for our books, stories, novels, or even articles. It's always hard to decide a good title. John in his article told us about a few of the many famous stories/novels...

For a long time it has puzzled me how one of my hubs keeps doing great, when it shouldn't. You see, I started a hub on one topic and then changed my mind in the middle of it.Now, back then I had no idea you couldn't change the URL later, so I was horrified when I was stuck with a URL that couldn't...
