Hi readers,

I just did a quick check on sales for me last year (i.e. 2008) and because I’m a stats freak I wanted to know which hours in a typical 24 hour period were the hottest for me.

I thought I might just share it with you people the actual stats in %-ages numerically and graphically and see if you people have similar results as me based on your knowledge (either with hard stats or not).

Here it is (Based on PST time):

In A 12 Hourly Period …

00:00 – 11:59 (36.5%)
12:00 – 23:59 (63.5%)

In A 6 Hourly Period …

00:00 – 05:59 (12.5%)
06:00 – 11:59 (24.0%)
12:00 – 17:59 (35.7%)
18:00 – 23:59 (27.8%)

In A 4 Hourly Period …

00:00 – 03:59 (8.73%)
04:00 – 07:59 (9.92%)
08:00 – 11:59 (17.86%)
12:00 – 15:59 (22.42%)
16:00 – 19:59 (25.20%)
20:00 – 23:59 (15.87%)

In An Hourly Period …

00:00 – 00:59 (2.77%)
01:00 – 01:59 (2.38%)
02:00 – 02:59 (1.58%)
03:00 – 03:59 (1.98%)
04:00 – 04:59 (2.38%)
05:00 – 05:59 (1.38%)
06:00 – 06:59 (2.38%)
07:00 – 07:59 (3.77%)
08:00 – 08:59 (3.77%)
09:00 – 09:59 (4.96%)
10:00 – 10:59 (4.56%)
11:00 – 11:59 (4.56%)
12:00 – 12:59 (5.15%)
13:00 – 13:59 (4.16%)
14:00 – 14:59 (5.55%)
15:00 – 15:59 (7.53%)
16:00 – 16:59 (6.94%)
17:00 – 17:59 (6.34%)

Enjoy these!

P.S. I’ve no doubt some of you will make use of these stats (either mine or your own) to your own advantage.
