    What does the hashtag generator do?

    Hashtags help Instagram and YouTube understand what your post is about and show it to people interested in that topic. This hashtag generator takes your keyword โ€” like โ€œstreet foodโ€, โ€œweddingโ€ or โ€œstock marketโ€ โ€” and suggests a ranked list: your keyword as a tag, popular hand-picked tags for that topic, and useful variations. Tap tags to select or deselect them, then copy them straight into your caption or description.

    How to use it

    1. Type one or two words describing your post.
    2. Tap any hashtag to toggle it. The best matches are selected for you to start with.
    3. Use Copy top 5 for Instagram or Copy selected for longer lists such as YouTube descriptions.

    A simple hashtag strategy

    Example

    For a reel about pani puri in Pune: #streetfood #foodiesofindia #panipuri #punefood #yourbrand. That's specific enough to reach people who love street food in your city, without looking spammy.

    Frequently asked questions

    How many hashtags should I use on Instagram?
    Instagram now recommends a small number of highly relevant hashtags โ€” around 3 to 5 โ€” rather than a long list, and has been testing tighter limits. Pick the tags that best describe your post instead of copying 30 generic ones.
    How many hashtags can I use on YouTube?
    Add up to about 15 hashtags in a YouTube description; the first three appear above the title. If a video has more than 60 hashtags, YouTube ignores all of them.
    Where do these hashtags come from?
    They are hand-picked, commonly used tags for 20 popular topics, combined with variations built from your keyword. The tool doesnโ€™t track live hashtag statistics, so always check a tag in the app before relying on it.
    Should I use popular or niche hashtags?
    Mix them. Very popular tags (like #love) are crowded and posts disappear quickly. Niche tags (like #puneFoodBlogger) reach fewer but more interested people. One or two broad tags plus a few specific ones works well.
    Can hashtags get my account banned?
    Using irrelevant, spammy or banned hashtags can reduce your reach. Only use tags that genuinely match your content, and avoid repeating the exact same set on every post.
