What is the best time to post on social media when you use several platforms?

THE SHORT ANSWER

There is no single best time that fits every platform, so the practical answer is to post when your own followers are online. Each app's insights screen shows the hours your audience is active. If you have no data yet, early evening in your main audience's time zone is a reasonable starting point. Timing matters less than people think on apps that keep showing a video for days. A steady rhythm matters more than the perfect minute.

What to do

  1. 1Open the insights screen in each app and find your followers' active hours.
  2. 2Choose one or two regular posting slots per platform.
  3. 3Keep those slots the same for a month.
  4. 4Compare the slots and move the weaker one.

The common mistake

Copying a best-times chart from a blog. Those are averages across all accounts and may not match your audience at all.

WHERE KLIK FITS

KLIK posts on a regular rhythm for each platform, which gives you the steady pattern that timing advice is really about.
