Improve the Timing of Your Social Media Posts

I stumbled upon this interesting post this morning–an excellent infographic from Kissmetrics based on data from @danzarrela.

 

Insights

1. Don’t Worry About Cali (aka Time Zone Awareness)

  • Capture 81% of the US audience simply by optimizing for the Central and Eastern Time Zones

2. Tweet More, Facebook Less (per day)

  • Post 1-4 times per hour to achieve higher click-through on Twitter
  • Post 0.5 times per day to achieve higher click-through on Facebook Pages

…and so it begins

And it begins in earnest.

After devoting far too much time to how I should use this blog, I have now decided to go full force forward and pull it together as I go.

I hope to use this space both professionally and personally. Professionally, I will share my thoughts on topics related to social media (specifically measurement and monetization), gamification, and other marketing news.

 

Personally, I will share a few jams, musings on video games, and, of course, my Twitter stream (follow me @TylerAltrup).
