There are 95 million photos and videos posted on Instagram daily.
Around 350 million photos are posted on Facebook and roughly 500,000 tweets are sent every minute.
With such big numbers, it’s easy for your social media content to get buried.
Fortunately, hashtags can help get your content discovered by the right people. In the finance world we’re talking traders, investors, institutes and B2B corporations.
Why use Hashtags?
Hashtags help you to:
- Get involved in trending topics
- Be discovered my other people interested in that hashtag
- Connect with like minded people
- Find relevant news
- Position your content in the right place
- Attract the right partnerships and clients.
Ultimately, hashtags are like codes or little folders. They help organise content on social media to help users find the content they want more easily.
How to use Hashtags
Depending on which social media channel you’re using, there will be different rules with how many hashtags you can and should use.
For example:
- Twitter: it’s best to post between 1 and 3 hashtags
- LinkedIn: 5 hashtags are more than enough
- Facebook and Instagram: 30 hashtags!
Once the hashtag has been created, your post will join all the other pieces of content with the same hashtag on that platform.
Users of the platform will be following hashtags that are personal and relevant to their likes and interests.
This is why you need to pick a “trending” hashtag or a popular one that has enough followers so you have a chance of being seen.
