Should I Schedule my Uploads?

AM2PM

Loving YTtalk
I've always been publishing my videos as soon as they are complete. So I usually end up making them live late at night on a Tuesday or Wednesday. I've read that Thursday afternoon might be the best time to publish. I'm almost ready to upload my latest video and I'd love to hear what you guys think about using the Scheduled Publishing feature. I haven't tried it yet. Do you think it will make a difference? I'd love to hear about your experiences with the feature.

Thanks in advance for you input.

Scheduled uploads definetley help attract new viewers. It gives Subscribers a sense that the YouTuber values their audience,
 
I schedule my videos every Monday and Friday at 5pm GMT. and I'll film the day before. main reason being is youtube likes consistency as well as your subscribers do. Also it helps to get you in a routine. I think if I didn't have a schedule I might become complacent if it's been a particularly hectic day at work. having a schedule means I have to get off my backside and get on with it lol.
 
I don't know if it will help anything other than making it easier on you. I use the schedule option extensively. I upload whenever I get around to it, but I have videos already uploaded and scheduled to be published, 1 every single day from now until February 18.
 
I'm not sure about what time gives the best views or anything but for me personally it gives me motivation to finish up a video before my scheduled upload and it keeps things organized.
 
I find the Scheduled Video option helps quite a bit. I like to upload my videos first thing in the morning on Tuesdays and Thursdays (and now the occasional Wednesdays, as I'm creating a new series), and remembering to upload before I head out to work can be a pain. I'd rather have the time in the evening to upload and make sure everything looks right so that in the morning, it'll just release at the time it's supposed to.

Wow! That is a lot of content ready to go. Good work. I'd love to get a few videos in the bank, but my bro doesn't make it easy. Lots of editing and planning required as well.
