The most popular hashtags will change with time. While #summer might be the most popular hashtag at the moment, you might notice that it goes out of favor once winter hits. Seasonal hashtags like #valentinesday and #christmas may jump up in popularity as we approach certain times of the year. However, you should keep in mind that trending hashtags will change yearly and may be a good idea to use these if you want to reach a wide audience.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Trending_hashtags\"><\/span>Trending hashtags<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you want your content to show up on users&#8217; explore pages, use trending hashtags. While you can use any hashtag to promote your post, niche ones are better for maintaining high visibility in the Recent section of Instagram. Since posts are sorted by original post date, adding a hashtag later won&#8217;t bump the post up for recency. Additionally, Instagram&#8217;s community guidelines prohibit repetitive content and penalizes users who repeatedly post the same content.<\/p>\n<p>While general hashtags such as #Sports and #Fitness are great for general content, more specific ones are likely to gain more followers with a more targeted audience. You might want to use both tags to promote your business, or niche down to a particular sport. This will save you time and effort, and may even help you get a better response. Just be sure to check what your competitors are doing to see which hashtags are most effective.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Trending_hashtags_for_2018\"><\/span>Trending hashtags for 2018<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Have you been wondering what are the trending hashtags for Instagram? If you&#8217;re trying to find new ways to reach your target audience, hashtags are a great way to do so. Using hashtags to promote your posts can help you reach a more targeted audience by connecting you with people who share your interests. Here are some examples of trending hashtags for Instagram in 2018.<\/p>\n<p>#summer &#8211; Whether it&#8217;s a vacation or a relaxing day by the pool, summertime is the perfect time to use Instagram to share your pictures and videos. Using the hashtag #summer on your posts will let people know that it was taken in the summer months. Alternatively, use #beauty for photos of makeup artists, hobbyists, and beauty bloggers. These popular hashtags will increase your Instagram following and reach.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Trending_hashtags_for_2022\"><\/span>Trending hashtags for 2022<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When using the hashtag #trending, be aware that your posts may not be the first ones that come up. There are a variety of other hashtags out there. When choosing which hashtags to use, make sure to choose a hashtag that will compete well with your content. This report from Influencer Marketing Hub helps you do that. It also includes several examples of the most popular hashtags in 2022. Use these hashtags to optimize your posts for the upcoming year.<\/p>\n<p>For example, the hashtag #Sports and #Fitness will continue to trend in 2022, as they are the two most popular general tags. A Muay Thai clothing brand, for example, uses both tags, proving that they can target a niche audience. The trending tags for 2022 will also help businesses that focus on specific sports. Entertainment companies can benefit from using these hashtags as well.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Non-branded_hashtags\"><\/span>Non-branded hashtags<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are many ways to get started with non-branded hashtags on Instagram. Most all-in-one content management systems enable hashtag searches and will present results in your Instagram feed. While this method will allow you to follow hashtags, it doesn&#8217;t guarantee that your post will appear in people&#8217;s feeds. Likewise, you can&#8217;t guarantee that your post will be seen if you use hashtags that don&#8217;t generate any traffic.<\/p>\n<p>Using a brand hashtag is a better way to get your content noticed, as it will ensure that you don&#8217;t compete with other brands for attention. By putting all your content under a single tag, you&#8217;ll be able to convert those who see your hashtag into qualified leads. However, this method is not for everyone. Make sure you do some testing on your hashtags before implementing them.
