Getting the best Exposure for your Google+ Posts
An experiment in timing....

The problem with posting on google+ when you dont have a huge amount of followers is to guage the
best time to post to coencide with the most number of followers online...

You want to get them while they are online as their stream will be full of post from the time they were
offline and they will probably miss your post in the sea of others...

I was trying to work out how I could work the best time...

Looking at a recent survey (from facebook) the best time is 3pm in the afteroon

  • The three biggest usage spikes tend to occur on weekdays at 11:00 a.m., 3:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. ET.
  • The biggest spike occurs at 3:00 p.m. ET on weekdays.
  • Weekday usage is pretty steady, however Wednesday at 3:00 pm ET is consistently the busiest period.
  • Fans are less active on Sunday compared to all other days of the week.
Armed with this infomation, you have 3 windows of opertunity 11am , 3pm & 8pm duing the week.

Unfortunately a feature that doesnt exist (well not know to me) is the abillity to see where the
majority of the people that follow you are located in the world...

So until this information is know, you have to pick your location for yourself...or based around what your actually posting...

Now once you have done this, you need to know the time in the locations...
using the following timezone map to get the locational times...

With all this information in hand I will now try and see if this works...
Tell me your findings...
