How to Use Best Times to Post
Before you get started, make sure that the feature has been turned on by using the Suggest Best Times toggle:
Then, you can select the account that you want your suggested times generated for. Click on the drop down menu above the toggle to select your social account:
From here, HeyOrca will generate your suggested posting times automatically.
HeyOrca syncs with your social accounts and calculates them based on your top-performing posts published in the past three months.
*For X (Twitter) profiles, these suggestions will be based on the most recent 100 posts.
Certain times will have star ratings, that show anywhere from 1-5 stars. 1 is the lowest-performing posting time, and 5 stars is the highest-performing posting time.
As shown in the example below, the highest star rankings you see are your posts that were created and performed highly at the publishing time.
