Best Time to Post

Read your audience chart, mind the time zones, and schedule each post for when your followers are awake.

Best Time to Post

Ten made-up audience charts show how many of your followers are online at each hour of the day. Find the peak, convert a chart from your followers' time zone into yours, spot the slot they'd sleep through, and finally split a post between two cities. Every answer is computed from the chart on screen.

How to play

Read the chart. Each bar is one hour. The taller the bar, the more of your followers are online.
Check whose time it is. Some charts are in your followers' time. If they're 3 hours behind you, add 3 to get your time.
Pick a slot. Tap a time or press 1 to 4. The last charts split followers between two cities: weigh each group by its share.
Score. 100 per right slot, +10 per right answer in a row (up to +50). A wrong slot costs one of 3 lives.

Quick tips

Find the tallest bar. The peak is when most followers are online. Posting then gives your post the best start.
Read the chart's time zone. "Their time" and "your time" can be hours apart. Scheduling tools usually work in your own time.
Ahead means subtract. If followers are 5 hours ahead of you, their 21:00 is your 16:00.
Weigh split audiences. With 60% here and 40% abroad, multiply each group's bar by its share and add them up.
Test your own data. Every audience is different. Charts like these come from your own insights page, and they change over time.
