Find the best posting times from your own data
Load your own export CSV with posts, timestamps and interactions or views. The heatmap places every post into a 7x24 grid: weekday by hour. Cells with many and strong posts glow brighter, the three best slots are highlighted. You can see at a glance when your community actually responds.
The analysis works only with your data, not with industry averages. Each cell shows how many posts fell into it, so you do not overrate thinly backed times. Time zones stay untouched: the timestamp counts exactly as your export delivers it. Everything runs locally in the browser.
Frequently asked questions
What data does the heatmap need?
A CSV with at least three columns: post, date with time and a metric such as interactions or views. Comma, semicolon and tab work as delimiters. Rows without a valid date are listed by the tool instead of being dropped silently.
Why does the heatmap differ from general advice?
General best times are averages across many accounts. Your community has its own habits. The heatmap shows only your data, which makes it more honest but also more sensitive when you have few posts.
What does the count in a cell mean?
It says how many posts fall into that weekday-hour combination. A cell with one strong post is less reliable than a cell with ten posts. You can set a minimum count so thin cells are hidden.
