The organizations, accounts, and posts analyzed in this research span the globe. The data was cleaned to a neat 24-hour format regardless of time zone.

For example, the best time to post to Facebook on a Wednesday in California, USA, would be 9:00 AM Pacific Daylight Time.
Best Time To Post On Facebook By Industry
Here’s when you can expect the most Facebook activity in your industry.
- B2C Businesses: Similar to Instagram, people jump on Facebook during breaks in their day (before work, during lunch, and in the evening).
- B2B Businesses: When it comes to B2B, it appears that catching people when they need a brain break in the afternoon is effective.
- Software Businesses: Similar to the two above, it seems software companies engage mainly before work, after work, and mid-afternoon. Notably, noon isn’t the most effective (which could mean opportunity, or it could mean that time is just too competitive).
- Healthcare Companies: Catching people when they wake up is the best time for healthcare workers. This trend makes sense since people may be looking for entertainment before starting what is notably a more high-stress work environment.
- Media Companies: The best times to catch people for news are when they wake up, go to lunch, or just get home from work. Those line up with times when many people catch up on the news.
- Higher Education: If you’re sharing content for higher education, consider experimenting with the peak times shown above and posting when there’s less activity.
