Timing is Everything

When You Post is Nearly as Important as What You Post
When it comes to posting to Facebook there a many nuances to take into account that can make the difference between success and failure.
One important factor is the time of day that you post. Your goal of course is to reach your key demographic and Followers and to reach as many of them as possible with each post. To do that you need to plan your posts to hit their timelines during the times they are most likely to be active on Social Media. Otherwise, your posts may reach their timelines, but be buried so far down their pages that they will likely never see them. By using your Facebook page Insights, you can determine when specific segments of your Followers are more likely to be active on Facebook. That knowledge enables you to plan or schedule your posts for those specific time periods. If you have a diverse audience, and products or services that appeal to specifics groups within your Audience, you might even consider planning posts at various times for difference products or services that are more likely to appeal to each segment of your audience.
A general rule of thumb is to plan your most important posts during the early evening. Most people will be home and more likely to be active on Social Media then. Depending on whether you are targeting a local audience or a national audience will determine the length of time "early evening' is. If your audience is in one time zone, then "early evening" will typically be from around 5-8:30 pm. If you are trying to reach a national audience you may want to post from 5 pm to 11 pm EST or later to reach each time zone's "early evening."
"Timing is Everything" when it comes to successfully sharing your posts with your key audience. Experiment to determine which times reap you the most Facebook Reach and success!
