You know something is going to be #trending if Jimmy Fallon and JT get a hold of it. So we started to look around and find out how many Twitter hashtags in a single Tweet is just too dang many.
By now you know that a hashtag (#) is simply a way to sift through all of the content on social media and shove it into a category or keyword that someone might be searching on. Then they have the ability to see it and ReTweet your Tweets to their audience. This is how your engagement could multiply.
Thanks to Kevan Lee of Buffer he uncovered a great report by Buddy Media that says you could double your exposure and engagement just by using a few hashtags. A FEW is the key here if you use more than two your engagement could PLUMMET.
Bottom line:
- Use hashtags on Twitter
- Find the proper keywords that other successful people in your industry are using
- Don’t use more than two
