How Do I Post at a Specific Time?
In SocialBee you can choose to post your content as follows:
- Post now (when saving the post)
- At a specific time
- Re-queue after posting
- Expire post (after it was posted X times OR at a specific date)
- According to your posting calendar
Post at a specific time
Whenever you want to, you have the option to schedule a post at a specific time – besides it being added to a Content Category. This feature is useful when you have something to announce, e.g., a launch or a special offer.
Note: In order to avoid double posting, we recommend you use the “Post at a specific time” for content that's not necessarily in a Content Category that's scheduled in your Posting Schedule. After being posted from its Category, it will either re-enter the sharing cycle (if it’s in an Evergreen category) or disappear (if it’s in a Share Once category).
Learn more about Evergreen VS Share-Once.
For example, if you add a posting time at 8AM and your post is found in a Category added in your Posting Schedule for 10AM, your post will be shared twice: once at 8AM (due to “post at a specific time”), twice at 10AM (due to your posting schedule).
How to share a post at a specific time
