Hashtags of BW

Hashtags increase awareness by putting your content in front of people beyond your immediate followers. They can also help unify a specific campaign or event.

  • Hashtags are used most effectively on X (Twitter) and Instagram.
  • Avoid overuse of hashtags (maximum of five per post).
  • Keep your hashtags short, memorable, and easy to read.
  • Use capitalization when incorporating multiple words.
  • Before implementing a hashtag, consider its potential lifespan and do a search across platforms to ensure it hasn’t been used widely.
