Why Good Posts Are a Lot Like Good Jokes - Timing
# Ever Wonder Why your Meticulously Hand-Crafted Content Gets Ignored?
https://i.imgsafe.org/3f35798f6e.jpg
*It could very well be due to poor timing on your part.*

Jokes require precise timing to make sure a the audience actually catches and laughs at your punchlines.  Just take the hilarious [Milton Jones](http://www.miltonjones.com/) for example - a master of timing.

# Who is your target audience?  
What timezone do you think they are in?  If you are a night-owl and enjoy staying up until the wees hours of the morning, you may be creating content for an entirely different audience than you imagined!  

Steemit has a growing international community that are beginning to post more content in their own languages and might not get/understand cultural and social references outside of their own communities.  So when you are pouring your heart and soul into your posts hoping they will reach the stars - remember... you can always save them for tomorrow and post them when your audience is actually awake!

Time couldn't be more perfect for this post.  I was thinking yesterday of this exact same issue.  Thanks for posting.  Of course, if you wanted to do the research, another great post could be one of breaking down the metrics of time of day and day vs. up-vote activity.

I was thinking of creating a little script to do this - analyze the block-chain for upvotes based on post time.  But I almost wouldn't want to share that much information with anyone ;)
