Experienced bloggers knows that posting time matters and how important and crucial it can be in order to attract more readers and followers. Correct timing will give you slight advantage over other users. It is one of the ways to be noticed on this platform and if your post contain quality and original content, the community will do the rest. They will upvote it, and give you some feedback as well.
Thanks to the blockchain, and its transparency, we are now able to extract data we need, so we can do detailed analysis. Scorum Block Explorer provide us all Scorum data. Transaction, all performed votes and comments, accounts created and much more.
To find best posting time on Scorum, I collected data from whole last week, and only one thing was important to me. I analyzed data by users voting activity and their voting time. It seems to me it's best way to determine best posting time, in time frame where most of the votes are given by users. I've made a chart separated by date and hours, so we can see total upvotes in each hour by date. Let's look at the graph bellow:
What this analyzed data tells us? The biggest user activity by voting is happening in period between 06 AM up to 18 PM. From 21 PM up to 5 AM frequency of votes is much lower. Ideal posting time will be somewhere about 12-16 PM. You can see the peak between 13-14 PM. But this is also tricky. If your post don't get few quick upvotes in this period, then the other posts will took its place and will go invisible to people. So timing matters, but also as quality in order to maximize your gains.
If we looking by days, you see in first chart that, community is more active at week start, in first few days. So if you are blogger who post once or twice a week, you should aim this period.
Just to mention that, there is no rules. You can post even at 3 AM and still be noticed and get upvotes. But probability for that is much higher during mid of the day.
I live in Serbia, so data is collected at SRB Timezone: UTC +2
