Hey! I’m trying to figure out the best time to post on YouTube to get more views and engagement. Do you have any suggestions or insights on when videos usually perform the best?

Thursdays, Fridays, and weekends during the time 2 PM to 5 PM (the local time of your audience) are the most suitable time to post on YouTube. This will buy YouTube time to index your video before the evenings at their busiest times. To be even more precise timings that will best represent you, you can also visit your YouTube Analytics - Audience tab and see when your viewers are most active.

Posting is best at the most active time of your audience; usually late afternoons or evenings, at least during the weekends.

The best time to post is when your target audience is active, and for most cases, post afternoons or evenings, and especially around the weekends.

I’ve noticed that posting in the late afternoon, around 3 to 5 PM in your audience’s timezone, works best for me. People seem to check YouTube after work or school. Weekends are also surprisingly effective for engagement.
