WHAT ARE HASHTAGS?

Let's talk Instagram Hashtags and how to use them!

With 95 million photos posted on Instagram everyday, #hashtags help the platform deliver the right posts to an interested audience in your topic. For example those with an interest in Shiraz would be more inclined to follow #WineWednesday or #Shiraz.

Our top tip for using hashtags on Instagram?

1. Use smaller-volume ones so you can compete to be seen in a smaller pool

2. Don’t use too many too frequently without a clear strategy in mind or they become pointless (Eg. #happy #superhappy #likeforlike #vomit) on posts

3. Only use hashtags when they add value or stimulate conversation, please don't use them when they're pointless
