My best traffic days are usually early in the week though..

 

As far as promoting on Twitter and Facebook, it doesn't hurt to do a bit of research and find the optimal times to promote your content via those sources. I use the site bufferapp.com to schedule tweets and facebook posts during optimal times.

 

I wrote a post around FINCON11 time last year about how I use twitter to promote my content:

As far as promoting, you might want to send out a tweet or something like that in the morning, but I don't that matters all that much either. Your best resources for getting quality (read profitable) traffic are going to be links from other (larger) blogs anyway, not promotion on social media or anything like that. Doesn't really matter what time of day it is when you're networking.

I read posts in the morning and the newest ones show up on my feed at the top so I usually start with those. 

 

I find my traffic spikes on Mon-Wed, and is slowest on Saturdays.

Filler articles I usually leave for Fri-Sun.

I would post your best original content, Monday - Thursday, scheduled to post between 6am-9am.

You'll catch folks reading blogs during breakfast, and when they get into work.

 

Readership is pretty light on the weekends for most folks, and because of that you'll see lots of sponsored and "fluff" posts on the weekends.

I agree.  I rarely post anything at all on the weekends as my traffic pretty well stayed the same regardless of whether there was a post or not.

(is this Michelle or Jeff).  That's exactly what I needed to know.  I was originally thinking of promoting (Facebook, Twitter, etc) at peak times, but I forgot about timing the actual post.  I'll try that.  

Come to think of it, I found M-W to be my best page view days on Suite101.  Monday was always high, Tuesday lower, I almost always saw a spike on Wednesday.  Thursdays and Tuesdays were fairly equivalent, with a dip on Friday.  The occasional Friday would have unusually high page views, especially around holidays when I had a good amount of content for the upcoming one.  Saturdays and Sundays were always low page view days.  

Thanks for reminding me of this...I need to start applying more of what I learned back then to my personal blogs.  Sometimes I forget this is all the same game.  Laugh

Well, that's how I'm approaching it anyway Laugh I wouldn't worry so much about trying to time the post. Write when and where you feel most relaxed, comfortable, and productive. With finance especially, and anything with global appeal, it really shouldn't matter.
