Instagram #Hashtags

Instagram #Hashtags are a great way to increase post views and using an app like PicArt or Adobe Photo Studio, to add text to pics like a website link for instance, are even better ways to not only increase social media awareness but also lead traffic for free to your domains. Use of up to 30 Hashtags is permitted by Instagram, and for best results pick hashtags related to your niche and ones that have under a 100,000 uses. When you type the # in front of a word to "say something" about the image you are posting instagram pops a choice box up telling you how many times that hashtag has been posted to. Choosing one that has over a 100k means your post will get lost in the feed, under the searches related to whatever your hashtag word is.

Example: #WealthyAffiliate

Dont use spaces in between words or after the # sign.

Also do a Google Search for current banned Hashtags on Instagram. They have rules like anyone else. Using a banned hashtag pushes your posts to the very bottom of search results.

Hope This Helps!
