Infographic: When will your social media post perform the best?

Posting great content does you no good if nobody sees it.

Social media channels are not one-size-fits-all. Just as different content types excel on varying platforms, the times and days of the week you post to your social media accounts can account for big variations in performance.

Though best practice is to use analytics tools to monitor when users are engaging with your content, an infographic from Oberlo shares guidelines for the ideal times to post on some of the major social media channels.

For example, Saturdays and Sundays are the worst days to post on Twitter, but the best for Pinterest, according to the infographic.
