the science behind hashtags
TRANSCRIPT
Hashtags categorize your tweets/post, making them more easily found in searches. They also help others find your tweet/post and your school page, which usually leads to gaining a follower or at least gaining interaction.
You use the hashtag symbol before a relevant keyword or phrase to help your tweet or post show up more easily in a search.
Clicking or tapping on a hashtaggedword in any message shows you other tweets that include that hashtag.
If you tweet or post with a hashtag on a public account, anyone who does a search for that hashtag may find it.
Type a hashtagged keyword in the search bar to discover content and accounts based on your interests.
Wrong: #bad dog. Right: #baddog. Don’t use spaces or punctuation in your hashtags. It will end the hashtag at the exact spot you use them. Most likely, this will result in your hashtag not making sense.
We have come up with some district hashtags in our Provo Way campaign and would love your help promoting.
Remember, when you use hashtags they become searchable and we are making a huge push to promote the #TheProvoWay.
This means you could potential help YOUR page by using these district hashtags.
@ is used to tag a person or
page whereas # is a search tool.
@ is a great thing to use if
you would like to tag the district or
another school.
You want people to be able to read your hashtag. #ImAPro is much easier to read than #imapro.
This comes down to readability. #ILoveSchool and #iloveschool will return the same results.
