What time in the day do you watch Youtube ?

Just want to have a little survey out there. My main audience are from America so I just wonder when you guys actually sit down and browse through videos on Youtube. At noon when you have lunch break at work ? Or in the evening when you come home and relax ?

And when do you usually post videos on your channel ? (in EST)

I live in Arizona, so my time is 2 or 3 hours behind EST depending on the season (we don't have daylight savings). I normally look at my messages and analytics right after I get to work once I finish all of my morning work s**t, so it can be anywhere from 7AM to 930AM depending on how busy I am. After analytics and messages, I check out my subscriptions. After that I search for random s**t. So yeah, basically before lunch I try to watch at least the people I'm subbed to. Once I'm home I look at all this stuff a lot less.

I try to post when I go to bed... That way I don't tie up my bandwidth and when I wake up, I can make my video public in the morning and people like me will see it in their feed and maybe watch it.
 
Usually around 7pm-9pm Eastern Time US. When I've gotten home, had some dinner, done whatever chores need to be done and then can sit down and watch, that's when I watch.

If I'm waiting for something to happen while I'm at work, I may sneak in a video or two, as well.

I read some reports online and they say that the peak viewership hour is in the evening (so I guess it falls in between 7pm and 9pm EST like you mentioned, which makes sense because that's when people are back home after work) so we should post Youtube video at around 2pm-4pm EST instead so Youtube can have the time to index our videos and send the subscribers' feed. Not sure if indexing takes that long.
 
I live on the East Coast, with a crazy schedule. I watch videos whenever, honestly. But I have noticed the most time people watch videos are after Wednesdays. If you post it around 2 or 3, it lets your younger crowd (middle/high schoolers) get excited to go home and watch them. And later on during the week, if your video is humorous/interesting/etc. people are gonna' wanna show their friends when they hang out with them during the weekends. So I would say between Thursdays and Saturdays.
