Less is more: Don’t use too many hashtags per feed post — focus on the ones that are most relevant.
Focus on specifics: With a generic hashtag, your post will be harder to find. For example, posting ‘#Labrador’ rather than ‘#dog’ will help fans of the breed find your post.
Add hashtags to your bio: You can add hashtags to your Instagram bio, making your profile more discoverable for people who share your interests.
Find related hashtags: Type a hashtag into the app’s search bar, and then select ‘tags’ from the dropdown menu to see the top hashtags that are closely related to it.
