Big props to Sprout Social. They've released a chart detailing best days and times to post on social media platforms, specifically Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Instagram, based on a survey of more than 20,000 people.
It's a difficult thing to try and predict, right? When is the right time to post on social media so you can get maximum exposure and engagement? The answer to that question is fluid, always changes based on several factors. And they also differ for each platform. That's why it's hard to predict.
Here are the highlights of Sprout Social's study (days/times are in central/Chicago time):
- Best times: Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday 9 a.m.–1 p.m.
