Using hashtags on social media - helpful or not?

I’ve always been told they are helpful, apparently 30 is the optimum number for instagram posts (a mix of specific and not specific) and that for twitter you shouldn’t put as many hastags.

However, I did also find out that instagram are starting to have problems with hashtags.

So what do you guys think? Are they helpful or not? :blush:

I think they’re a little helpful. But you can’t guarantee it’ll help for each and every single post. I’ve noticed that my posts do reach a good handful of people who don’t follow me. And I had one instance where my post blew up past my follower count. Only once though. It’s decent but not amazing

To answer the question, yes I think they’re helpful. It helps you categorize your posts, plus it also increases your audience reach. Apart from that, hashtags can also be used to search for particular posts faster in just one click.

Helpful, especially if a person is looking for something very specific. They can just search that hashtag.
There are also people who follow a hashtag, so posts made by people they don’t follow appear on their feed if it has that hashtag in it.

they can be useful for trying to search things up or organize posts!!!

On the most recent forum insta post 52 accounts were reached through hashtags so :eyes: yeah
It’s not reflected by the amount of likes that post got (it only got 7) but at least people saw it
