The use of #hashtags

[HeyItsRick]

How many of yall are properly using hashtags in your videos/social media posts?
I've pulled hashtags from larger channels on youtube but it seems to be a shot in the dark alot of times, clout(sub-count) weighs heavily over actual keyword searches it seems.

I started using hashtags in my instagram posts this week and the likes are through the roof along with a boost in profile views/followers. I'm sure lots of these accounts that immediately like my posts are bot accounts but hey I'm like the extra love lol.

Extra love is always great, even from the cold, methodical grip of a bot.

Yup, not really used them much on YouTube, although have a couple of times.

I think on YT video description you are allowed 3 hash-tags max.

I don't know the mechanics of how the # work but I guess putting relevant ones is always a better choice than putting trending tags just to click-bait people and annoy them..

If I get annoyed with something to a level that I shit-list it, then there's no undo for that.

On Instagram hashtags really count, you should use the hashtag search IE: While in a post type "#Triumph" a list will pop up of the most popular hashtags starting with "Triumph".

However Youtube is another story, in a separate library, stick to relevant hashtags only. Even Youtubes internal algorithm will get

when you guys mentioned hashtags on youtube are these the tags underneath description? :O If it's not then I really have much to bloody learn

It will normally show just below the video window and just above the title/description when seen on a PC.
