Wall Posting Tips Ideal Posting times depend on the day of the week per industry! You will need to post outside the 9 to 5 window!
Travel and Hospitality: The highest engagement occurs on Thursday and Friday, when the week is winding down and people are looking to escape from the office. Entertainment – Friday, Saturday, and Sunday were most important post times Media: Weekends had strong engagement while Monday was the weakest.
