When to Schedule your Posts

Social media can be used for engaging your fans, creating interest about your product and even driving traffic to your website. Using the appropriate content and pictures for postings, improvising on the hash tags and doing it at the right time gets you guaranteed results.

When to Post on Facebook

Most people are looking for inspiration during the afternoons. Facebook postings best be timed during this time say 1-4pm to get more views and probably a like or share. Around 3pm we find that that the number of users is at its peak. It is usually good to post pictures and videos on Facebook since they drive more engagement. However schedule your posts in a systematic way that they do not bombard anybody’s timeline. Engagement is high on Thursdays and Fridays – when people are in an upbeat mood due to the oncoming weekend.

Twitter

The best time to post on Twitter is again at 3:00 pm from Mondays to Thursdays. On Fridays, Saturdays & Sundays the traffic is very less. In Twitter, an Image can add more weight age to your post and increase its chance of getting re tweeted. For getting maximum re-tweets, you may post between 12pm and 5pm.

When to Post on LinkedIn

People usually check out LinkedIn during the middle of the week i.e., Thursday and Fridays, between 12pm and 5pm. That is the best time to post on LinkedIn.

Pinterest

Most of the people are working during the week; obviously they are not in the mindset to check on Pinterest during work hours. The best time to access Pinterest is at leisure. Saturday and Sunday evenings are the best times when people check them out. Therefore one must plan one’s posts accordingly.

Tumblr

Post anytime between 7pm to 10pm, as Tumblr’s traffic usually peaks during this time. However weekend postings are best for Tumblr.

GooglePlus

Users of GooglePlus, check it in the mornings. So GooglePlus postings must be done between 9-11am; it is the perfect time to post on GooglePlus on weekdays. Weekends are not the time to post on GooglePlus.
