Best time to upload for maximum exposure
 
Hey guys,
Since I am still new here I am not sure of some things. One is the best time to upload new wss.  I am GMT+8 in Hong Kong so I know about the time difference.  I also know about the "magical time" of midnight Spanish time but what would you recommend, according to Spanish time, as the best time to upload a ws? Thanks!

Good morning Spagman63!
 
It depends on your aim. If you usually have problems uploading, you should avoid the rush hour, usually one or two hours before midnight (Spanish Time). If you want your worksheet to be more "visible", meaning at the top of the page, then you should upload it near midnight. This one is highly subjective, of course. However, when I start checking the new contributions, I look attentively to all the worksheets, read the descriptions, think twice about its usefulness to my students, etc.etc., but as there are usually so many worksheets, when I start scrolling down the page, I become tired and seem to be unable to concentrate, taking a good look at those worksheets that are eyecatching only. I must add that this may happen because I usually look at the new contributions late in the evening.
 
Hope I could help.

Wauw, it never occured to me to time my uploads for maximum exposure..... I obviously missed something....
I thought this site was mainly about sharing, supporting and exchanging ideas. I thought the points were only of secondary importance.........(especially when you have more points than you would ever need anyway...)

Dear Marion,
I want to share my ws with as many people as possible :) Hence, my question.  Without points I can �t dl the older ws which I might need.  Not everyone has selfish motives.
