Let’s talk about hashtags!

There are 3 different kinds of hashtags you can use in every post:

-branded (unique to your brand, this could be your business name and tagline)

-community/industry (any hashtags others in your industry/space are using)

-geographic (use these if you want to localize your business to a town, group of towns region or state)

Remember when they used to recommend 20-30 hashtags on Instagram? Now the optimal amount is 3-5! Use them wisely and customize the hashtags you use for each post. Questions? Reach out to our team today.
