I am a man of humor, but seemingly not so many people here like to respond to a practical joke.
Anybody can recommend me a website which enable me to make money writing funny things?

Why don't you try creating a humor blog? If you have money to spare why not create a website of your own. A funny site. I have read a site that publishes funny pictures of sites. This site turned out to be a success. Now the site is making money through sales of T-shirts, mugs and other items with prints of the funny cat pictures the site has. You can start a humor site of your own, who knows, your website might end as succesful as the site I am talking about.

I know you're asking about websites that would help you to make money writing funny things but have you considered the possibility of writing for comedians? I used to be one in NYC and I can't tell you how difficult it is to come up with fresh, funny material. Although I never paid anybody to write specifically for me, I had several colleagues that did and they paid a lot more than you could ever make writing for a site online. Just a thought......

Thanks veromar.
Maybe you can promote my blog http://www.man2tickle.blogspot.com to them.
Btw, I'd like to draw funny pictures too, as shown there on its header.

There are many freelance writing sites. Meaning you can write whatever you want on that site. You can write humor if that is what you seem to like to write about. I would try publishing your own humor on associated content and bukisa as you can get paid for your page views on these sites. Bukisa does have a minium payout as associated content does not.
I have been on Bukisa for some time and probably have around 10 articles and i thought having that many articles would of helped me to get the payout but im still 5 dollars short and i guess i will have to step my game up on taht one and enjoy writing more articles when i get the free time to do so.
Associated content is the easiest writing site i have come across. I have around 72 slideshows and articles on this site that i promote on a regular basis to get my articles seen and heard through out the facebook world LOL. I do associated content and i do more slideshows on this site as it is easier for me and easier to promote pictures then other things i do write about from time to time.
I hope i was able to help and enjoy mylotting.

It seems like there are not many sites which will enable you to make money writing funny things. However, have heard of reader's digest?
Perhaps you can buy a copy to take a look first. Anyhow, they have a few pages of jokes and they encourage people to write to them. You can give it a try.

Thanks itachi12, but I'd prefer to start from a small one since English isn't my mother's tongue.
