Quick answer
Peak window · Sunday · audience local time
The best time to post on LinkedIn on Sunday is 7–9 PM — in your audience's local time.
Sunday daytime is LinkedIn's quietest stretch of the week. The one partial exception: a small Sunday-evening uptick as professionals plan their week — but it remains a fraction of weekday traffic.
Sunday tip
Rather than posting on Sunday, use it to draft and schedule your Tuesday–Thursday posts. Sunday planning, midweek publishing is the highest-leverage LinkedIn routine.
What to post on LinkedIn on a Sunday
Knowing the window is half the job — the other half is having something that fits the day's mood. Sundays on LinkedIn 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 Sunday gives your audience something to expect, and gives you one less decision to make.

One professional habit you're starting or stopping. Personal-but-professional content fits Sunday's reflective register, and invites others to share theirs.

How Sunday compares to the rest of the week
Best times to post on LinkedIn per day, with Sunday highlighted
Why these windows work
LinkedIn's feed prizes "dwell time" and comments, and distributes posts over a much longer tail than other platforms. A Tuesday 8 AM post gathers engagement all day and frequently resurfaces on Wednesday. Conversely, a Friday-evening post dies in a near-empty feed before it can build momentum.
As always: these windows aggregate published engagement studies and are a starting point — see the full sources & methodology on the LinkedIn overview. Once you have a few weeks of posting data, your own audience analytics are the better guide.
Perguntas frequentes
Is Sunday evening worth trying on LinkedIn?
Only as an experiment. The pre-week planning bump is real but small; a Monday 8 AM post will almost always outperform a Sunday 8 PM one.
When should I schedule posts if I batch-write on Sundays?
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday mornings, 8–10 AM. That spread hits all three peak days while keeping a fresh-post gap between each.
