What are Hashtags?
The purpose of social media is to engage with your audience in a two-way conversation. A hashtag is a label for those conversations. It helps others who are interested in a certain topic, quickly find conversations on that same topic. [spacer height=”20px”]
Here are a couple of example sentences using hastags:
– I hate that the Redskins lost to the Cowboys! #Redskins
– Hurricane Maria really destroyed Puerto Rico. #PrayforPuertoRico #PuertoRico
– Vote for your favorite singer on today’s episode of the Voice at 8 pm! #TheVoice [spacer height=”20px”]
Hashtags are used mostly on social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat and Google+. [spacer height=”30px”]
Why are Hashtags so important?
Hashtags work. They help increase your social media presence as they make your content view-able by anyone who has an interest in your hashtag as it goes beyond just your followers.
Hashtags can help you build a brand for your business or yourself by engaging with customers and joining the conversation about what’s trending.
If you participate in high-traffic conversations by discovering the biggest trending topics, you are more likely to gain great visibility to your business. The more visibility you get, the more likely you are able to create a larger audience and a larger audience exponentially increases the likelihood of fresh leads for your business.
