You&#8217;ve researched a topic, written tons of engaging content, and&nbsp;inserted a few relevant images to add visual appeal. Now all that&#8217;s left is to&nbsp;post it.<\/p>\n<p>Only one question remains: <strong>When should you post it?<\/strong> &nbsp;Right away? Should you wait until&nbsp;after lunch? Maybe put it off until tomorrow morning?<\/p>\n<p>Have you ever wondered if the timing of a post matters? Well, it does.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.kissmetrics.com\/science-of-social-timing-3\/\">70% of people who read blogs read them in the AM hours<\/a>. And <strong>blogs get their most inbound links at 7 AM!<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>The Mad Wave of Blog Posts<\/h2>\n<p>There are pros and cons to publishing during peak hours. You&#8217;re not going to get undivided attention.<span style=\"line-height: 1.6em;\">&nbsp;Yes, you will get more traffic, but you will also get more bounces and less time spent on page. This means your high traffic might not be high-quality traffic.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Finding the Right Time to Post<\/h2>\n<p>Does this mean that you should post to your blog only in the morning? Maybe! Every blog is different, and <strong>every blog has a target demographic<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>You need&nbsp;to&nbsp;make sure that you are posting at a time when your target demographic is&nbsp;active. For example, if your target audience is men, you&#8217;ll find them actively reading blogs at night more than women.<\/p>\n<h2>Using Your Own Data<\/h2>\n<p>The key is to <strong>use&nbsp;data to your advantage<\/strong>. By collecting your own data, you can begin to customize your posting schedule to fit your demographic. Look for when your readers frequently read posts, comment or socially share your blog.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"line-height: 1.6em;\">There are a variety of factors that will determine your audience&#8217;s engagement, including whether they are local or global, as well as their age, gender, and the time at which they are most likely to make a purchase.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>You can collect all this valuable data using the&nbsp;<a style=\"line-height: 18pt;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/analytics\/web\/template?uid=xv9_4BSiQbunqoNWgXe1nw\">custom Google Analytics<\/a>&nbsp;tool<span style=\"line-height: 1.6em;\">. By tracking your website&#8217;s activity, it can tell you about your <strong>lead conversions according to the day of the week, and even hour of the day<\/strong>!<\/span><span style=\"line-height: 1.6em;\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>If you do your homework you should be able to pinpoint the best time to post to your blog. After all, <strong>no one knows your audience better than you do<\/strong>, so keep track of the statistics and implement a content marketing plan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You&#8217;ve just finished writing a great blog post.
