Posts Versus Engagement by Time of Day

The first widget on this page is the Posts versus engagement by time of day widget. In this widget, you can view how well your posts perform at different times of the day, broken out by each day of the week.

This widget displays both incoming engagement and your own posting activity. Engagement appears in blue while posting activity appears in green.

This widget has 3 different graphs:the posts vs engagement visualizations

  1. The first graph shows you the incoming engagement and your own posting activity over the last 24 hours, broken out by each hour.
  2. The second graph shows you the incoming engagement and your own posting activity over the last week, broken out by each day of the week.
  3. The third graph is a combination of the first two graphs. It shows you your engagement and positivity activity over the past week, broken out by every hour of each day. The amount of activity is represented by the size of the circle – a larger circle means more activity. If you click on a data point, you can see how it compares against your average.
