Twitter Hashtags: The Complete Guide

How to use hashtags effectively on X.

Hashtags can help your tweets reach more people, but only if used correctly.

Do Hashtags Matter?

Hashtags matter less than they used to, but they still help. Use 1-2 relevant hashtags per tweet.

How to Choose Hashtags

1. Use Relevant Hashtags

Only use hashtags related to your content.

2. Use Popular Hashtags

Use hashtags with high search volume in your niche.

3. Use Niche Hashtags

Use hashtags specific to your audience.

4. Don't Overdo It

1-2 hashtags is ideal. More than 3 looks spammy.

Hashtag Examples

  • #BuildInPublic
  • #IndieHackers
  • #Startups
  • #SaaS
  • #Entrepreneurship
  • #ProductHunt
  • #Makers
  • #Growth

Key Insight

Hashtags are a minor factor in reach. Focus on great content first, hashtags second.
