As you can see, a lot depends on the goal you want to achieve.Additionally keep in mind that users mainly are more active during the weekend, then during the working days. If you look on any fanpage, you may notice that people spend time on facebook mostly on Saturdays. You can even take a look on your own activity log and most of us do the same, we share content mainly during Saturdays.As you probably know the “age” of your post matters on facebook, by age of the post could be defined by the period of time which passed from the time you have left your post. Keep in mind that period of time which have passed from the moment when you left your post is so called age of your post. Facebook recently added Story Bumping feature, so the age of your post does not have such a significant influence as how popular it is among your subscribers. It means that the most popular ( higher amount of likes and comments) posts will appear on your timeline. However also take into consideration the “age” of your post, because the most probable that you will not find those which were posted 4 month ago.Users usually are more active (around 15-20%) during Wednesdays and Fridays. The reason probably is that statistically people want to work less on Fridays and Wednesdays, so that’s why they spend more time in social networks.2. TwitterBasically Twitter is more popular abound mobile phone users, so it is difficult to set a specific time to post, because people usually have their phones with them.Integration between customer and brand is higher during weekends, however integration business-to business is higher during weekdays. Take this into consideration defining your target group.
