When is the best time to post on Steemit?

in #steemit6 years ago

Every day, I spend a lot of time and effort growing my Steemit account. How my post, my followers, and Steem Power grow regularly. Of course, the two most important activities on Steemit are writing and commenting, but there are also a lot of valuable tools that help me a lot to increase my Steemit presence.

Steam time

I consider this tool to be the most effective tool to use because it is also an excellent tool created by @JGA; it shows you the activity of your followers and the best time to publish your post on #Steemit.

The question here is: what is the best time to #post?

So you spent more than 3 hours on an absolute masterpiece of a post and cannot wait to post it on Steemit right away for some serious reviews and maximum rewards. But when you finally post it, you will notice that for the first 5 minutes, the only upvote of the post is yours. So, you continue to refresh the page in anticipating to seeing a change in your views. No matter how often you refresh your page and close your eyes before checking your earnings, the number of views does not change, and the income does not change. Finally, after 20 minutes, some votes begin to arrive, but as they come from minnows, your earnings remain at a few cents. The hours go by, and the post you poured out your heart and soul into creating goes by unnoticed and unappreciated.

So, wait a minute - you mean I Can’t post late at night, and I Can’t post it during rush hour? So then, what is the best time to post?

As a majority of Steemians come from the US and Western Europe, you should try to post when these users are usually online and active on Steemit. According to my own experience, the best time to post seems to be between 1 pm and 7 pm EST Monday through Thursday. These means that your post will be seen and read by a huge number of steemit followers in the western region especially people from the united states.

It is usually at this time from Monday to Thursday that most people still pretend to work while they only count the remaining hours in the day. And what better way to spend time than to rest on Steemit? It is also during this same period that users from Western Europe are withdrawing (18h - 12h) and more than likely, these users will sneak in a few hours on Steemit before going to bed.

Special warning for weekday displays - you should generally avoid posting from 5 - 6 pm EST as it is then that you will be competing with whale and Steemians best ranked. Since you already know it's unwise to drive at rush hour, consider this period as Steemit Rush Hour and choose to post a little later after 6 pm, but before 19 hours. Post at the right time and get the best out of steemit.


I thrive to write quality blog posts here on steemit to really add value to this amazing platform (and to further push paradigm shift due to the blockchain). I hope this format was good for you. If not, leave me a comment and I will work on it.
