What is a Hashtag?
A hashtag is a keyword(s) preceded by the number sign (#), that help Twitter users find messages on a certain topic.
Where Did it Come From?
Too many to count (no, we’re not kidding.)
2015
Why Hashtags?• Allow for highly specific audience targeting
• Want to market to someone who just had a baby? Use #newborn
• Monitor your reputation• Always have an idea of what people are saying about you –
conversations are going to happen whether or not you’re listening, wouldn’t you rather be in the know?
• Perform better customer service• Find and respond to comments, complaints and kudos quickly
and efficiently
Why Hashtags?• Keep an eye on your competition
• Monitor competition and see how they’re interacting with their audience to figure out how to set yourself apart
• See what’s being said about them
• Hear what’s going on in your industry• Keep track of what’s happening in your niche or industry to keep up-
to-date and participate in the conversation
• Promote special events, contests or deals• Facilitate easy sharing and campaign tracking of contest entries and
conversations relating to the campaign
Example•Good Hashtag
Put your kid in a neon yellow shirt and he’ll be much easier to find. Do a search for all kids in a neon yellow shirt and that will eliminate a lot of kids to help narrow your search.
•Bad HashtagPut your kid in shorts. Do a search for all kids
in shorts. You’re going to narrow down some, but not a whole lot.
