Quick answer
Peak window · Tuesday · audience local time
The best time to post on Facebook on Tuesday is 8–10 AM, with 1–3 PM as backup windows — in your audience's local time.
Tuesday joins Wednesday at the top of Facebook's engagement curve. Both the morning and early-afternoon windows deliver above-average reach, and conversation-style posts get their best comment rates of the week.
Tuesday tip
Ask a question on Tuesday morning. Comments are Facebook's strongest ranking signal and midweek mornings are when your audience is most willing to chime in.
What to post on Facebook on a Tuesday
Knowing the window is half the job — the other half is having something that fits the day's mood. Tuesdays on Facebook reward a particular kind of content, and these three formats are reliable starting points. Treat them as repeatable series rather than one-offs: a format that returns every Tuesday gives your audience something to expect, and gives you one less decision to make.
The comment-bait question
Tuesday morning is one of the best comment windows of the week. Ask something everyone has an answer to — first job, best local lunch, unpopular food opinion.

Why these windows work
Facebook's feed heavily favours posts that spark conversation — comments and shares weigh far more than reactions. Posting when your audience is online maximises early comments, which is the single strongest signal for further distribution. Question-style and conversation-starting posts amplify the timing effect.
As always: these windows aggregate published engagement studies and are a starting point — see the full sources & methodology on the Facebook overview. Once you have a few weeks of posting data, your own audience analytics are the better guide.

Mid-morning, 8–10 AM. Aggregated studies show Tuesday morning engagement within a hair of Wednesday's peak, making it one of the week's most reliable slots.
