TikTok Peaks When Work Ends
The Data
7.1M TikToks analyzed by Buffer Views peak in the evening. Afternoons are the dead zone.
One schedule for every platform leaves reach on the table.
Post Evenings. Own the Weekend.
Best Times
6 PM to 11 PM pulls the most views (Buffer, 7.1M posts)
Saturday and Sunday lead. Friday 8 PM is the weekly peak (RecurPost)
1 to 2 TikToks per day, spaced 3+ hours apart
Spacing Beats Spamming. Always.
The Rule
Two spaced posts a day outperform five dumped at once.
Tip: Batch on Sunday, then space uploads 3 to 4 hours apart. Never post into the 1 to 5 AM dead zone.
