Do you think there is "BEST TIME " to start discussions?  email this discussion to a friend?

Disclaimer : I am not trying to steal your mylot secrets just trying to get some clarity on an issue

There was a gentleman here who used to get many responses for his discussion (he is not here anymore ) who once said that the best time to start discussions was in the evening when everyone was home.Now that made sense and I must admit I tried it and got pretty good results ...

Lately however, I have been testing that theory and starting discussions early in the morning and I have been gettting good results as well.Consequently this has led me to start reviewing my long held view and to believe that it is really my friends and the appeal of the discussion that determines how many responses I get.That to me seems logical because even if you start a discussion at a time when every one is mylotting and it doesnt appeal to anyone then no one will respond.In addition,there is never a time when everyone is here because many people live in different time zones so what is evening for you could be morning for someone else and vice versa.

I do stand corrected if evidence can be found which shows a clear link between teh time of post and the number of responses,so that is my task for you my most faithfull friend and fellow mylotters

BIG THANK YOU TO ALL MY FRIENDS AND FAITHFULL RESPONDERS ,YOU ARE THE BOMB thumbup

I has a similar idea as yours. The responses are not determined by a right time, but a right topic and also, a group of friends! But if most of your friends are in the same time zone, maybe for you, there exists a "good time" to start discussions.LOL

I think first we have to increase the number of friends.Mainly they only (not everytime)posting responses.I'm new in this site ,so I got something useful from your discussion.

Hi there!
I do not think that there is any so called best time to start a particular discussion to get number of responses. What matter is contents of the discussions and who started it. I normally get large number of responses, irrespective of the timing of my discussions.

I usually start them when i think of them. I think weekends are a slow time to get responses but i usually get quite afew in the long run because my friends are good to respond when they get around to it. Happy day to u. jo

I get good responses in the mornings also. But I do think the discussion itself has to be interesting or you wont get replies, and I also want to thank all my frineds on here, I have so many devoted friends who respond to almost every one of my discussions no matter how boring they may be lol. I usually start MOST of my discussions in the morning but not all of them.

I don't think there is a "right " time to start a post. I start posts when I Finally have a question or comment to share. The amount of responses you get all depends on the post. If the subject is popular enough, you can start it whenever you like and people will find it.

Your thinking is logical ,thank you for your response .Have a good day Sarah

I find that anytime is alright to post a discussion as well as reply to a discussion.There are always lots of people on here at all times of the day and night.There are discussions being started all the time in most of my topics i like.There are alot of people saying that who only come on here of a weekend and not during the week as they tend to be at work.I do tend to try to respond to people that are friends first then i respond to a few new people as that way they also get the chance of earning,as well as try to keep them on here.

It has some truth to that. If you start a discussion where most members are on mylot, chances are, you get many responses. But it matters not if you have some friends who are following your discussions. We don't need tons of responses to earn from our discussions. But if you want good results, then apply what you have learned in your experiment. Good results may mean good responses.

I’m in Australia and I am usually here during the day while my daughter is at school and a lot of my friends from the States for example are tucked up in bed but I still find a lot of them kindly respond to my discussions. I usually have to wait until the next day but the responses usually come so I don’t think time zones make any real difference.happy

Hi ronnyb, I go along with the 'best time' bit in a way, not a certain time of day but the time when a few friends are obviously active at the same time so it gets a bit of a kickstart. But apart from that it doesn't really hold true as as you pointed out time zones, people up at odd hours like the middle of their night.

What proves it isn't the time though is I put a discussion up I believe on Wednesday about noon here and by midnight it had about ten responses, but by Thursday it had about 40, a lot of those sneaking in whilst I was sleeping. It is also best to try and avoid that digest thingy as that brings additional responses from the thing direct.
