About this tool
Hashtags are the discovery engine of social media, transforming your content from invisible to viral. Used properly, hashtags can increase engagement by up to 12.6% on Instagram and expand your reach to millions of potential followers. They categorize content, make posts discoverable in searches, connect you with communities, and help you ride trending topics. However, hashtag strategy matters - using too many, too few, or irrelevant hashtags can actually hurt your performance. The key is finding the perfect mix of popular, niche, and branded hashtags for your specific content and audience.
Different platforms have different hashtag best practices and cultures. Instagram allows up to 30 hashtags and users actively search them, making it the most hashtag-friendly platform. Twitter's 280-character limit means 1-2 highly relevant hashtags work best. LinkedIn users prefer 3-5 professional industry hashtags. TikTok thrives on trending challenge hashtags. Facebook users rarely click hashtags, so 1-2 maximum is sufficient. Understanding these platform-specific nuances is crucial for hashtag success.
Our Hashtag Generator creates strategic hashtag sets tailored to your content and platform. The tool combines high-competition trending hashtags (for visibility), medium-competition niche hashtags (for targeted reach), and low-competition specific hashtags (for engagement) to create a balanced strategy. Each generated set includes popularity indicators, category labels, and usage recommendations. Whether you're building brand awareness, targeting a specific community, or jumping on trends, this tool provides the hashtag strategy you need to maximize social media reach and engagement.

FAQs
How many hashtags should I use?
Instagram: 5-10 hashtags (some experts say 3-5 now). Twitter: 1-2 hashtags maximum. TikTok: 3-5 hashtags. LinkedIn: 3-5 hashtags. Facebook: 1-2 hashtags. More isn't always better - focus on relevance over quantity.
Should I use popular or niche hashtags?
Use a mix of both! Popular hashtags (1M+ posts) give short-term visibility but fierce competition. Niche hashtags (10K-500K posts) offer targeted reach and better engagement. Mix 30% popular, 60% niche, 10% branded for best results.
Where should I place hashtags?
Instagram: In caption or first comment (both work, first comment keeps caption clean). Twitter: End of tweet. TikTok: In caption. LinkedIn: In caption. Facebook: In caption but use sparingly. Never place hashtags mid-sentence.
Can I use the same hashtags for every post?
No! Using identical hashtag sets repeatedly can flag you as spam. Rotate hashtags between posts, customize for specific content, and update regularly. Create 3-5 different hashtag sets and alternate them.
What are banned hashtags?
Instagram and other platforms ban hashtags used for spam or inappropriate content. Using banned hashtags (even innocently like #woman or #desk) can shadow-ban your post, making it invisible. Always research before using new hashtags.
Should I create a branded hashtag?
Yes! Branded hashtags (#YourBrandName, #YourCampaign) build community, encourage user-generated content, and track campaign performance. Include your branded hashtag in every post for consistency and brand building.
