• Hashtags can be used on Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, and Twitter.
• When you create a post that you want others to search for or see, add a “#” and the hashtag phrase or word as part of your message.
• Don’t include spaces or punctuation within your hashtags.
• Use hashtags that are relevant to the subject matter you are posting. Twitter will tell you what topics are currently trending on social media via hashtag.
