It really depends on your product, teams size and what you want to get from the launch. Generally speaking:
- Weekdays see more launches and have higher traffic.
- Weekends are less busy but also less traffic.
1. Monday: Some makers avoid Monday as everyone is busy on Monday with meetings, etc.
2. Tuesday: Most competitive day of the week usually, a lot of traffic but harder to get top rank
3. Wednesday: Competitive day, hard to make top 5 but loads of traffic.
4. Thursday: Competitive but less than Tuesday and Wednesday, still loads of good traffic.
5. Friday: Less traffic but also less competitive, great day to launch if your goal is ranking in top #3
6. Saturday: Low traffic, typically dominated by small indie projects, resources, meme products and launches looking for beta users
7. Sunday: Low traffic, typically dominated by small indie projects, resources, meme products and launches looking for beta users

@nicolaas_spijker Thank you very much for your detailed help!!! I will definitely take this into consideration. Where did you get this information from?
@sara_with_h General traffic data and browsing the community for the past 3 years :).

Launch day depends on your goals and social media following.
Weekends are less competitive and low traffic days. So, if you have a small audience on social media and your goal is to get the badge, you can launch on weekends.
Whereas if your goal is to get more traffic and sales, and you have a decent to huge social media audience, you can launch on weekdays.
And regarding time, always launch at 12:01AM PST. It's better to schedule the launch, so that you won't miss the time.

Hey there! It's great to hear that you're gearing up to launch your product soon. I think the best day for launching would be a Tuesday or Wednesday, as people are usually more focused during the mid-week and more likely to engage with new products. As for the time, late morning or early afternoon tends to be a good window to catch people's attention.
I'd also suggest reaching out to your network and building some buzz leading up to the launch. It's always helpful to have a group of early adopters who can provide feedback and support.
Once your product is live, I'd be happy to check it out and provide some feedback. Feel free to click on the "Notify" button to get notified when it's ready. Good luck with your launch!

@mihajlokovacevic hat does SF time mean?
The best day and time for a product launch can depend on your target audience and industry. However, some general tips are:
1. *Weekdays:* Tuesday to Thursday is often considered optimal as people are settled into the workweek but not yet thinking about the weekend.
2. *Morning:* Launching in the morning allows for the whole day ahead for people to discover and engage with your product.
3. *Avoid Mondays and Fridays:* Mondays can be busy catching up from the weekend, and Fridays might see lower engagement as people look forward to the weekend.
4. *Consider Time Zones:* Launch at a time that accommodates your target audience's time zones for maximum visibility.
Ultimately, understanding your audience's behavior and preferences is key. Test different times and days to see when you receive the most engagement. Good luck with your launch!
