Do you know your very own best time to post on Google+? Are you using it to get more +1s, shares, website traffic and sales?
At the beginning of this year, I published an infographic on the Best and Worst Times and Days to Post on Social Media.

In this I also included the best time to post on Google+ so that you can reserve it for your most important posts. The timing mentioned in the infographic is perfect for those with relatively new accounts and those who haven’t posted much. But once you have posted plenty and have sufficient data, you need to find your very own best time to post on Google+ as it will vary from person to person.
This step can be effortlessly executed using Timing+. A free tool created by Daniel Treadwell.
