 What is a hashtag, how to hashtag and why should you include them in your social media posts?

• A hashtag or this symbol “#” has become an integral part of social media.
• It is a label for content. It helps users who are interested in a topic, find direct information about it fast and easily.
• Hashtags make it easier for you to discover posts around a specific topic.
• They are not just for Twitter anymore, although they are most effective there.

How to use hashtags effectively:

• They always start with # but they won’t work if you use spaces, punctuation or symbols.
• Including hashtags in your posts means taking part in a conversation happening on that social media platform. And most importantly, it makes your posts visible in that conversation!
• For example, if you use #ATTD2021 on your Instagram posts, everybody who follows that hashtag will see your recent post in their feed. You might gain some new followers this way as well – and thereby, connect with WSAVA-interested peers worldwide!
