Utilizing Hashtags on Instagram


On the Instagram network, the use of hashtags results in more interaction and engagement with time. It works better using more hashtags on this particular platform unlike others. Using up to 11 trending and relevant hashtags can result in getting the best reach.

Though you’re permitted to use up to a maximum of 30 hashtags on the Instagram platform, it isn’t advisable to use too many hashtags. Just use them specifically to help boost your reach within your network.

You can as well search for what hashtags competitors or influencers are using to build engagement with their audience on the Instagram network by utilizing the search box. Use a wide range of relevant hashtags on images, content, and comments, being a platform that is most recognized for using multiple hashtags.

Utilizing Hashtags on Pinterest

On Pinterest, the use of hashtags is an excellent way to make people find your posts based on specific keywords or search phrases. You can moderately use a maximum of two relevant hashtags as usual.

Using multiple hashtags on the Pinterest network has no benefit to offer other than keeping at a maximum of 2 hashtags that are most specific or unique to your specialty.

Are hashtags the same for Twitter, Facebook and Instagram?

Yeah they all work in the same way. I know Instagram has a limit of 30 hashtags per post though so be aware of that. If you add more they will all be wiped off. Not sure about the limit with twitter and FB.
