Using Google Analytics to See What Time of Day Visitors View My Site

[Instabill]

Hi folks,

My company has Google Analytics setup for all of our websites, but I am a bit stumped on something. Now, this may not be possible, but am I able to see what time of day visitors most frequently view my blog? I would like to optimize blog post publishing for when I know we have in influx of visitors, yet I cannot find this information on GA.

Any input would be much appreciated.

Regards,
Meghan

You can do it by making a custom report attached are the settings you need to use.

Ooh thank you so much! I knew there was a way, but I could not remember how to find this section of GA. You are awesome!

Thanks, David! This is excellent help as well!

This way you can aggregate all the times together over a date range to get a feel over time which ours are best. you can also use advanced segments to only see organic traffic or other sources.

Hi ! We have created a custom report for this purpose. Import this from the Google Analytics Solutions Gallery (You need to be logged in with your Google Account to see this page).

This report also help you see the day of the week and date of the month analytics data.
