What is the best time to post on LinkedIn?
Answered by the Crispy team · July 17, 2026
Quick answer
The best time is when your audience is actually online - usually mid-morning on weekdays, but it varies by audience. Rather than guess, Crispy shows you how your posts perform and can schedule them for the windows that land best for you.
There is a lot of generic advice about the perfect posting time, but the honest answer is that it depends on your audience. The right window is whenever the people you want to reach are actually scrolling.
The general windows
For most professional audiences, weekday mornings - roughly mid-morning, Tuesday through Thursday - tend to perform well, with a smaller lunchtime bump. Weekends and late evenings are usually quieter. Treat these as a starting point, not a rule.
Find your window, don't guess
Your audience may not match the averages. The reliable way to know is to look at how your own posts actually perform at different times. Crispy shows you that, so you can spot the windows that consistently get you reach and engagement.
Then post at the right time automatically
Once you know your best windows, you do not have to be at your desk to hit them. Crispy can schedule your posts to go out when your audience is most active, so timing stops being a chore.
Start with weekday mornings, then let your own results tell you the truth. Crispy shows you what works and schedules around it.
