So I am encouraging you to consider humor in your content. If you do not think you are a very funny person, think about what you say that makes your friends laugh. It is advised to write your content like you are talking to someone so why not apply the same with your sense of humor?
My issue is that I have a very sarcastic sense of humor so sometimes if you are not right in front of me, you don't realize that I'm only joking. I'm going to have to deal with this but I truly want to make people WANT to come back to my website and find more articles written by me.
Whether you want people to really learn from your website content or just want to come back to hear more from you and enjoy your sense of humor, I suggest making people laugh as a way to make that happen.
