TikTok posting times, from your own data
The best time to post on TikTok depends on your audience
The best time to post on TikTok is a guide, not a rule, because TikTok also shows videos to people who do not follow you yet. Read your own Analytics, test a few slots, and make the videos in Socials Creator: vertical, scene by scene, ready to download.

What is the best time to post on TikTok?
The best time to post on TikTok is when your own followers are most active, which you can read in TikTok Analytics under Followers. Because TikTok also recommends videos to people who do not follow you, treat that as a starting point: test a few slots, compare views and watch time per video, and keep what works. Socials Creator makes the 9:16 videos and plans the days.

In the app
Make the videos and keep the schedule in one place
Socials Creator does not upload videos to TikTok or read TikTok statistics. It builds the videos and the plan, and you upload at the hour you chose.
Vertical videos, scene by scene
Build short videos one scene at a time with Seedance and Grok Imagine, in the 9:16 vertical shape TikTok uses, and review each scene before the next.
TikTok photo posts
Create image posts in the 1080 × 1920 TikTok photo format, with a preview of how the image will look on the phone.
A calendar for your test
Place each video on a day and an hour, drag it to another slot when you change the plan, and download it when it is time to upload.
A batch of videos for the test
Create several videos in one session. A video costs between 30 and 180 credits depending on model, quality and length, and failed generations are refunded.
Captions and hashtags in your tone
Each video idea comes with a caption and hashtags written in your brand's tone of voice, so you can paste them straight into TikTok.
Ideas for the next video
Ask for ideas based on your niche, dates and offers, so a posting test always has a next video to publish.
How it works
How to find the best time to post on TikTok in 3 steps
1. Check when your followers are active
Open TikTok Analytics and go to the Followers tab. It shows the days and hours your followers were most active recently. Note two or three strong slots and confirm which time zone they refer to.
2. Publish one recurring video format in several slots
Pick a repeatable format, such as a quick tip or a before and after, and upload it in each slot over two to three weeks. Create the videos in Socials Creator and keep each date and hour in the calendar.
3. Compare per video, and wait before judging
In Analytics, compare views, average watch time and the share of people who finish each video. A video can keep gaining views for days, so wait before you decide a slot has failed.
Who it is for
Who should test their TikTok posting schedule
Restaurants and shops with local followers
Your followers mostly live in one area. Compare a pre-lunch slot against an evening slot with the same dish-of-the-day video.
Creators building a routine
A steady slot makes a feed easier to plan. Test two slots, keep the stronger one and batch the videos for the week.
Agencies with several accounts
Each client has a different audience, so each gets its own tested slots. Brand kits and calendars stay separate per client.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is the best time to post on TikTok?
It is the time when your own followers are most active, which TikTok Analytics shows under Followers. Use it as a starting point, test two or three slots with the same video format and keep the one with the best views and watch time.
When to post on TikTok to get more views?
Publish when your followers are online, but do not expect the hour to do everything. TikTok recommends videos to people beyond your followers, so the first seconds of the video and how long people watch matter alongside the time you choose.
What are the best days to post on TikTok?
The best days are the ones your Followers tab shows as most active. Compare two strong days with the same type of video and let the per-video results, not a generic chart, decide.
Can Socials Creator upload to TikTok for me?
No. Socials Creator creates TikTok-ready videos and photo posts and lets you plan them in the calendar, but you download them and upload them to TikTok yourself. Scheduled publishing from the app is only for Instagram images and carousels.
Does it show my TikTok analytics?
No. Your statistics stay in TikTok Analytics. Socials Creator does not read statistics from other networks, so use TikTok's own numbers to judge each slot.
How long should I test a posting slot?
Two to three weeks per round is enough to see a pattern if you post the same kind of video in each slot. One video is too little, because a single video can rise or fall for reasons unrelated to the hour.
Can I try it for free?
You can try Socials Creator for 7 days with 100 credits. A card is required, and you are not charged if you cancel before the trial ends. After that, plans start at $69 per month.
