HubSpot and CoSchedule both suggest that you post between 8 a.m. and 10 a.m. on weekdays. Martin, however, posts at any time of the day, including mid-week. In general, Facebook traffic is higher between midday and late afternoon. However, Martin does post outside of these times, and so the time difference between them is not significant.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"HubSpot_recommends_posting_on_Twitter_between_8_AM_and_10_AM_on_weekdays\"><\/span>HubSpot recommends posting on Twitter between 8 AM and 10 AM on weekdays<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>According to an infographic from HubSpot, you should be posting on Twitter between 8 AM and 10AM on weekdays. This is because people are more likely to be online during their morning commute than at any other time. In addition, business-to-business tweets performed better on Wednesdays than those posted on Sundays. However, if you&#8217;re a B2C company, you should post on Wednesdays between noon and 3 PM.<\/p>\n<p>There are other factors that you need to take into consideration before posting on Twitter. You need to know when your audience is most active. The best time to post on Twitter is between 8 AM and 10 AM, but it depends on your niche. A study from HubSpot found that posts on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays receive higher engagement rates than those posted at other times.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"CoSchedule_recommends_posting_on_Twitter_between_12_00_pm_and_7_00_pm\"><\/span>CoSchedule recommends posting on Twitter between 12:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Many people treat Twitter as their RSS feed, and the best times to post are between noon and three p.m., and then again between five and six p.m., when people are at their most likely to have time to read their feeds. Unmetric also reports that the best time to post promotional content to Twitter is between eleven and twelve p.m. based on engagement patterns of the top 100 brands.<\/p>\n<p>The data below is based on millions of social posts made by people in a variety of industries. These numbers should not be taken as definitive. You should always experiment with different posting times and find what works best for you. If you&#8217;re unsure, try posting between 12:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. If you&#8217;re not satisfied with those results, try posting at other times during the day.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Facebook_traffic_peaks_mid-week\"><\/span>Facebook traffic peaks mid-week<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You might be wondering when Facebook traffic peaks. You&#8217;ve probably heard that Monday mornings are a prime posting time with the highest click throughs and shares. But did you know that mid-week is also the best day to publish your content on Facebook? The number of shares and clicks on posts posted in the morning between 1 and 3 P.M. is significantly higher than in the afternoons. Wednesday and Thursday post hours are also ideal for increasing your reach and engagement.<\/p>\n<p>The best time to post on Facebook is from 9 am to 4 pm Monday and Tuesday. The daytime hours on Friday are less crowded and have the lowest click-through rates. You&#8217;ll also see the lowest engagement on Facebook between 8 a.m. and 3 p.m. On Friday and Saturday, you&#8217;ll have an uphill battle trying to get clicked on your content. If you&#8217;re looking to increase your reach, post during the mid-week and avoid posting during the weekend.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"LinkedIn_traffic_peaks_mid-week\"><\/span>LinkedIn traffic peaks mid-week<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are several reasons for why your LinkedIn traffic peaks during the week. First of all, it&#8217;s the most popular time for your targeted audience to visit LinkedIn. Many people use the site daily to keep up with work, and as such, they&#8217;ll be more likely to see your posts. However, if you want to see a boost in your engagement, try posting during the weekdays. Mondays and Fridays are the least active times to post on LinkedIn. On top of this, usage drops dramatically during the weekend.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re planning to post on LinkedIn, try posting in the afternoon, which is when your audience is most engaged. After 3pm on weekdays, you&#8217;ll have more people looking at your posts. Also, you&#8217;ll see a slight spike in traffic during the afternoon. This is likely because the majority of people on LinkedIn are on their smartphones. However, this doesn&#8217;t mean you shouldn&#8217;t post at all!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Twitter_traffic_fades_after_4_pm\"><\/span>Twitter traffic fades after 4 p.m.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Posting time and frequency on Twitter can help you optimize your marketing efforts. Generally, social media traffic is highest in the morning around 9 a.m. and decreases dramatically after 4 p.m. Monday through Thursday are the busiest times for marketing and social media posts. Then, on weekends, traffic fades after 5 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday are the slowest.<\/p>\n<p>To improve your Twitter traffic, try posting early in the morning or early afternoon. You&#8217;ll get a high click-through rate on tweets sent between 1pm and 3 p.m. EST. Similarly, you&#8217;ll see lower click-through rates on weekend tweets. If you can get your posts published earlier, then this is the best time to post. However, avoid publishing posts during the weekend.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe width=\"375\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"210\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/s1m83494XGc\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What Are Peak Twitter Hours?
