I’m fascinated by the scheduling feature Crowdbooster offers. How do you determine the “best time to tweet”?

Our co-founder, Mark, actually wrote an extensive post on this subject on Quora. If you have a quick second we highly recommended reading it. Since this is the FAQ section of our site, however, we’ll quickly review the factors that determine this time. We first analyze past performances of your tweets based on retweets, replies, and impressions. Due to this first factor, a new user on Twitter may not initially receive a suggested time to tweet upon registration. Don’t worry, keep on tweeting and we’ll get that time recommendation to you soon. In the meantime, however, users are allowed to schedule tweets from their dashboard by selecting the “New Tweet” button. The second factor we analyze is the times at which your followers are most active. We look at when your followers tweet as an indicator of when they are active and therefore more likely to see your message.
