How To Find The Best Trending Hashtags

So you are entering the world of social media, but you are stumped. What the heck is a hashtag?

The pound sign or hash turns any word or group of words that directly follow it into a searchable link within an online platform. You will be able to track discussion topics, images and posts based on those keywords.

Did you know there are sites available that can assist you in finding the most appropriate and popular hashtags to reach your audience? Google "Hashtag Finder" and test out your findings.

Let's talk about hashtagify.me. "It allows you to find the best hashtags to reach your audience". It's free to try too.

In the search box in the upper left key in a tag. Since I am interested in small business my example is #smallbiz. Hashtagify pulled up a top 10 list which includes words such as:
• entrepreneur
• startup
• socialmedia
• marketing

And there you go. Don't forget to use the pound sign # before using the examples given.

So what hashtag is your business focusing on and what popular examples came up?
