Observation from my own workout:
Doing some pressing movements like bench press & overhead press (dumbbells or barbells) helps.

As the weights in the presses increase, I normally would be able to do more push ups (as long as I don't stop training in push ups).

Might want to check out hundredpushups.com too!

Actually it is the other way around. Your ability to do more pushups results in more weight used during presses, not the other way around.

Anyway easily the best way to improve pushups is by:

1) Identify the maximum amount of pushups you can do (i.e 15)
2) Divide it by 2 (so you get 7)
3) Everyday constantly do sets of 7. You can do one set every hour maybe, or every time you go to the bathroom etc.
4) Add one rep every 2 weeks.
