The Best Time & Date to Launch or Bump a WSO

Took the words right out of my fingers, I agree this is the best time

I actually thought that in a prior thread it was determined that the best time and date was orange.

Tuesday or Thursday mornings-never on the weekend/mondays or fridays.

And if you think about it, not only is there new WSO threads everday, but all the old threads are being all bumped at random times which is also out of your control just like this thread is showing.

I remember reading a thread where this one warrior was pissed because he just paid to bump 2 of this WSO's and just after he paid and his WSO's were bumped, like maybe 5 minutes later, a whole page of new WSO threads popped up and his WSO dropped to the second page.

Sometime it happens, probably rarely but it's out of your control.

I have never myself done a WSO, but if I did, my main strategy would be to drive traffic to that WSO page using affiliates and their lists, and I wouldn't really rely on bumping that much.

Even if you break even or lose a little each time you bump, you need to keep in mind the life-time value of those new customers.

@ MJ: You've clearly never launched and bumped a WSO. If you had, you'd know
that you have to wait until your WSO is off the second page before you can bump it.

@ all: Like so many opinions in this forum, there's been very little empirical evidence
shown to support your point, save that of Will.

In my experience, there is no best time to post or bump. If that was the case and it
became public knowledge, then everybody will be doing it, making it the worse
possible time to post.

Morning/afternoon/evening where?!

The world is divided into 24 time-zones.

Even the English-speaking world is pretty much divided into 24 time-zones.

Even the WSO-buying, English-seaking world is pretty much divided into 24 time zones.

If you live in San Diego and launch or bump your WSO at 11.00 in the morning, it's going to be 11.00 at night in South Africa, where so many of your potential customers/affiliates live.

If you bump your WSO at 2.00 on a Tuesday afternoon, and live in London yourself, in some parts of Australia and New Zealand, where so many of your potential customers/affiliates live, it's going to be 12.00/1.00/2.00/3.00 on Wednesday morning.

These threads often give me the impression that some people imagine that everyone lives in the same time-zone. I don't know about you (and I don't sell or promote WSO's anyway, so I have a cheek posting in these threads in the first place ) but my subscribers and customers live all over the world, and there are thousands of them whose locations I don't even know (unless I can be bothered to check/analyze their IP numbers, which I generally can't).

What I do know is that when the overall traffic's highest, WSO's will drop off the front page most quickly, and when it's lowest, they'll stay there for longest. So I find it hard to believe that it can make huge differences anyway, because some of the "other WSO sellers" are trying to "time it right", too. It's largely a self-adjusting/self-compensating mechanism, in other words. (Not that all that much of the buying traffic comes that way, anyway, people tell me.)

Thanks for all the confusing advice everyone ; )

Since most people are saying do not bump on weekends (and it is Saturday and I am about to hit page 3) I think I will bump now haha

Honestly from a marketing prospective I would think you should bump as soon as it hits page 3 if you are still turning a profit or breaking even.

Edit
I went ahead and bumped at 4 am PST on Sat nights/Sun morning as that is when my thread hit page 3. Was happy to wake up at 9 am PST to 13 new sales : )

Do you have any data to back this up... Or are you just guessing?
