Golden Hour Calculator
LinkedIn's algorithm weighs the first 60-90 minutes after you post most heavily. Tell us when you're actually free to reply, and we'll show how much of that window you're covering.
Example: you post, then sit in a meeting for 15 minutes before you can reply, then reply actively for 20 minutes. Delay = 15, active = 20.
You're barely touching the golden hour. Most of your algorithm boost is going to waste.
You're missing 70 minutes of the golden window.
Reply speed beats reply length
A short, fast reply in minute 3 does more for distribution than a thoughtful paragraph in hour 3.
The first 10 comments set the tone
Early replies shape how later commenters engage. Front-load your presence, not your effort.
You can't out-write a bad window
If your delay consistently eats the golden hour, the fix is presence, not a better post.
Stop scheduling your day around the golden hour.
