Bido When Is The Best Time To Auction

[Michelle]

Thanks to some nice people whom voted, I have got some names accepted into the Bido Auction.

Being in the UK I would like to ask you, the buyers - When is the best time to send them to auction for the most exposure.

Please vote for the day you think would be the best . Although the poll is for the day, would you also be so kind as to post what time of day - This would be very helpful. :tu:

You can choose more then one day if you like.

Thanks so much for your time :hearts:

I'm not sure but that is my own feelings and opinion and that is Tuesday.

I would say Friday or Saturday night around 8-10pm American Time. This is when the majority is online well it is for ebay purchases so I suspect people in general.

I will go with thursday because that's the day ppl get paid or some atleast.

Friday - people are antsy and excited about the weekend and probably not thinking straight as they would other times.

It would have to be after people got home from work and probably after 7-8.

Or monday, would probably get you more exposure cause for lots of people its a boring day, around the same time.

I'd prefer friday though.

I would say Tue-Thurs. Monday people are usually busy catching up on email/business that came in over the weekend, and Friday people are usually busy scrambling to finish up work before the weekend. Also, Monday and Friday usually also get swallowed up when people make long weekends for short vacations, so they aren't in front of their computers. This is true for sending out email newsletters in terms of realizing the best open rates, so I would assume the same applies to auctions.

As for the time of day, you probably want to catch people on their lunch hour, or in the evening after dinner time. Aiming for the afternoon in the US opens you up to more bids from Europe though, because if you shoot for like 7-8pm eastern time it's going to be very late in Europe.

I would personally do 11:30am - 12:30pm EDT Tue-Thurs.
