Best time to feature a deck?

Posted on March 2, 2015, 12:52 a.m. by darleen

When is the best time to feature a deck? What days and times does TappedOut have the most users online?

There are numerous methods of which to figure this one out. One would be to check your feature history. Another would be to examine the front page comment stream and gauge the average time between posts. Ideally, the best time is when everyone is off school and work. But you also have to consider that the creativity of your title and how well made your first sentence hook is will also determine whether or not people will look at your deck.

I'll post some of my feature history later on.

Only going to put ones that are greater than 25 clicks or less than 10 clicks. Just remember that this is T/O server time. So adjust your time accordingly. Oh, and dates with events like FNM or midterms will have an impact. I'd post the deck title, format and start of feature put that takes far too much effort to format.

It's almost definitely evening time according to the Tappedout server.

Yeah, I've been stupid and doing it mid day. No fucking wonder my Bant Blink deck isn't getting upvotes.

Also, it good to check out if there is lots of other decks featured at that time. You have better chance of getting views when there is less competition. Naturally.

Thanks for the info!

Femme_Fatale what time zone is the T/O server in?

Femme_Fatale says... #9

I'm terrible with time zone names. The best way to figure this out is make a post, check out the time, and compare it with your time.
