Ask HN: How to convert viral Reddit posts into Website traffic?

I'm the founder of a devtools startup (won't advertise it here), and I've gone semi-viral twice on Reddit (~2-10k upvotes).

I made funny content around our product with the goal of generating website traffic from it (posted on r/softwaregore and r/programmerhumour).

We went semi-viral but sadly see almost no spike in traffic around the time each post.

Which content strategies have been shown to convert well on Reddit?
