What is Hastag  ?


hashtag is created by including the symbol “#” in front of a word or words without spaces. A hashtag is a label used on social media sites that makes it easier to find information with a theme or specific content. Associations can use hashtags to reach their target audience and to help members filter information.

Why do we use   hashtag?

hashtag: A word or phrase preceded by a hash mark (#), used within a message to identify a keyword or topic of interest and facilitate a search for it. Whenever a user adds a hashtag to their post, it's able to be indexed by the social network and becomes searchable/discoverable by other users.

What is the purpose of the hashtag in social media?

hashtag is a keyword or phrase preceded by the hash symbol (#), that people include in their social media posts. Essentially, it makes the content of your post accessible to all people with similar interests, even if they're not your followers or fans.

Facebook also graciously offered these 3 usage tips for the hashtag:

1.     Search for a specific hashtag from your search bar.
2.     Click on hashtags that originate on other services, such as Instagram.
3.     Compose posts directly from the hashtag feed and search results.

  1. After reading this article , I realized that how people are misusing hashtags, including me. We use hashtags everywhere in the social media without knowing the proper meaning. I also have seen many people using irrelevant hashtags in large numbers which is not at all needed. Moderate or less usage of hashtag is preferred.
