Hashtag Generator for Instagram? Heres a 2021 Guide (Tool & Lists Included)

Struggling to find the #perfect hashtag for your Instagram post?

That’s #relatable!

Most content creators on Instagram are in the same boat.

But there’s a quick way to fix this.

I’m about to show you how to find Instagram hashtags that will boost engagement and connect your posts with the #perfect audience.

So #followme to #instagood !!!

Instagram Hashtag Generator: Full Guide, FREE Tool & Lists of Hashtags

In this post I’ll show you how to find and use the best Instagram hashtags — no matter what niche you’re in!

And yes, the free tool and lists of popular hashtags are below!

In fact, I’ve added a glossary of 999+ hashtags below, so you have instant access to good hashtags for your next post.

But first… let’s back up and define what hashtags are and the different categories of hashtags.

Table of Contents

What is an Instagram hashtag?

Let’s start with the basics.

What’s a hashtag?

A hashtag is a word or a group of words beginning with a # sign.

If you’re American, you might call this a pound or number sign. Whereas other countries in the world refer to this (#) to as a ‘Hash’ symbol.

Hashtags basically function as keywords. You can click them to see more posts about the keyword.

Twitter was the first social media platform to introduce hashtags in 2007. Since then, many other social platforms have adopted them.

Now let’s look at the process of creating hashtags.

How do you add hashtags on Instagram?

Again, hashtags allow you to categorize Instagram posts into different buckets.

Here’s an example:

Say you want to see posts related to digital marketing. No problem. Just click in the search bar on Instagram and type in #digitalmarketing.

The search suggestions will supply you with a list of related hashtags.

When you click enter on #digitalmarketing, you get a page filled with Instagram posts about digital marketing:

You can use any term as a hashtag and search to get relevant results.

If you’re a digital marketer and want to make sure your posts show in this feed, you just need to add the hashtag “#digitalmarketer” to your post.

Then your post will automatically end up in this feed and be visible to anyone who searches the hashtag — or clicks the hashtag on another post

Keep in mind: it’s difficult to get seen via generic or highly competitive hashtags.

How to make finding hashtags (even more) simple

Think of the Instagram search bar as ‘Google’ and each hashtag page as a “Search engine results page”.

Just like Google, the posts on a hashtag’s results page depend on a number of factors, including:

  1. Quality of posts
  2. Number of likes, comments, shares and saves
  3. Number of followers of the account

…and other factors determined by Instagram’s algorithms.

Choosing the right hashtags has NO advantage when your posts aren’t good quality.

You’ll only gain juice out of your hashtags when your Instagram posts STAND OUT from the crowd.

You can use a professional tool or a free Instagram post maker to help you create stunning Instagram posts in minutes.

Apart from quality posts and the right hashtags, you also need to focus on your post captions.

Add a pinch of consistency and you’ll get solid engagement on all of your Instagram posts over time.

9 different types of Instagram hashtags

Today, Instagram boasts over a BILLION active users.

As a result, hashtags have grown in number too — and with that high quantity comes a huge variety.

So let’s take a look at the different types of hashtags used on Instagram.

1: Branded hashtags

Branded hashtags feature names of your organization, product or service.

Such hashtags are used every time you make a post about your social media handles.

Some examples of branded hashtags are #nike, #picmaker, #Instagram, #LouisVuitton, etc.

Here’s an example of Louis Vuitton using their branded hashtag on one of their posts, featuring a member of the South Korean boy band, BTS.

NOTE: #BTS is also another branded hashtag on this post.

2. Hashtags related to a product or service

This category is a subset of the first category.

Although your products and services are offered by your brand, you can create separate categories for them too.

Sometimes you can also choose already available categories for products and services.

For example, some of the product hashtags from Nike could be #shoes, #whiteshoes, #whitesneakers, etc.

3. Community hashtags

This is a great way to index your posts among already well-established hashtags or communities on Instagram.

For example, if you’re a musician, you can use hashtags like ‘#musiciansofInstagram’ to index your post among the community on international musicians.

Let’s go a step further and assume that you’re a musician in New York.

You could also use a hashtag like ‘#musiciansofny’ to index your post on that page.

The other way brands can use this is by developing their own hashtag.

Mindvalley, the brainchild of Vishen Lakhiani, uses community hashtags on all of its Instagram posts.

Here are some community hashtags they consistently use on their posts.

#mindvalleycommunity

#mindvalleytribe

4. Custom campaign hashtags

These are custom hashtags created to track campaigns run by brands on Instagram.

One example of this is #nationafriedchickenday by KFC.

Although this was not their brand hashtag, it was highly relatable to their core offering — fried chicken.

They used the hashtag to their benefit on all their Twitter and Instagram posts.

Now, that’s what we call smart usage of hashtags!

On the other hand, Coca-Cola inserted #shareacoke into their famous campaign.

5. Location hashtags

These hashtags are based on certain locations in the world.

It can be anything like #newyork, #california, #italy, #india.

6. Event hashtags

These are hashtags created for events and conferences organized around the world.

One good example of event hashtags is the ‘#olympics’ used during the Olympics. Based on the country in which they are hosted, these hashtags can be further split into multiple categories.

A good example is the upcoming Tokyo olympics.

The hashtag‘#tokyoolympics’ is already trending even though the event is more than two months away (at the time of this being written).

7. Day-based hashtags

There is a list of hashtags that are based on days of the week.

Even though most people reject these hashtags, one look at their popularity may nudge you to think otherwise.

Here’s a small list of the hashtags for Monday.

Here’s another example of hashtags for Tuesday.

With day-based hashtags, your opportunities are endless.

8. Month-based hashtags

After day-based hashtags, we have month-based hashtags.

Although each variant can only be used once in a batch of 30 days in a year, it’s still beneficial.

It depends on how you apply your creativity to use these hashtags on your Instagram posts.

Here’s an example of all the hashtags that are based on ‘#january’

9. Special day hashtags

These hashtags are based on a special day in a year.

These could be anything like International Earth Day, April Fool’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day, Thanksgiving Day, and even National Underwear Day. (Yes, we’ve got a special day to celebrate underwear at a national level!)

Here is an example of ‘#earthday’ used by Pinterest on one of their posts.

Another way to categorize Instagram hashtags

Apart from the above-mentioned way of categorization, here’s one more way to categorize Instagram hashtags.

While that looks at the function and internal meaning of a hashtag, here’s how you can do it differently.

1. High competition Instagram hashtags

Instagram hashtags that have more than 250,000 posts fall into the category of high-competition Instagram hashtags.

These are generic hashtags like #digitalmarketing, #marketing, and #sales.

Here’s an example page of a high competition Instagram hashtag:

This page has more than 15,549,561 posts, which puts it at the top of the competition.

2. Medium-competition Instagram hashtags

Medium competition hashtags are in the range of 85,000 to 250,000 posts.

#digitalmarketingtip is a good example of a medium-competition Instagram hashtag.

3. Low-competition Instagram hashtags

Any hashtag that has less than 85,000 posts is a low-competition hashtag.

#digitalmarketingspecialist is a good example of a low-competition Instagram hashtag.

Newbies on Instagram can try to compete for such low-hanging fruit (assuming their posts are good enough).

7 Instagram hashtag mistakes you should avoid

Mistake #1: Keeping your profile private

A private profile is one of the worst things you can do for your hashtag strategy.

If your profile is private, Instagram won’t index your posts on any hashtag pages.

Let’s assume that you have included the following hashtags on your post: #marketing, #sales, #future.

Instagram will only index your posts on the following hashtag pages if your profile is public.

Here’s an example of a public profile.

With a public profile, you can view all it’s contents even if you aren’t following it.

Now, here’s an example of a private profile:

Even if this account uses 100 different hashtags on all their posts, it wouldn’t be indexed on the hashtag pages.

Mistake #2: Using banned hashtags on Instagram

Instagram has a number of banned hashtags you should stay away from.

These hashtags are banned because Instagram users have termed them to be spammy or irrelevant.

One rule of thumb is to insert your hashtag into the “Instagram search bar” and see if it has been flagged.

For example, you might think that ‘#alone’ is completely harmless.

But once you run a search on Instagram, you will find that this hashtag has been flagged for inappropriate use.

Adding too many banned hashtags on your profile , may flag your profile as spammy.

Mistake #3: Being too generic with your hashtag approach

Hashtags like #digitalmarketing, #sales, and #marketing are QUITE generic.

These hashtags have a lot of followers and posts.

But, they also have strong competition at the top.

A good rule of thumb is to niche down and include hashtags that are highly relevant to your post.

Here’s an example of how Dain Walker, a Melbourne-based brand strategist uses a niche hashtag to his benefit.

Apart from generic hashtags like #marketing, #branding, Dain has also included low competition hashtags like #markeitngtips and #brandingdesign.

It’s a solid strategy to have a mix of hashtags that are high competition — as well as low on competition.

Mistake #4: Being generic with your Instagram posts in general

A common mistake Instagram content creators make is being highly generic with their Instagram posts. Instagram is crowded and highly competitive.

If you’d like to be successful on Instagram, stick to a niche and post content related to that. Here are some examples:

Dain Walker sticks to posts related to branding, digital marketing, and content marketing.

Marcus Filly is a fitness trainer and sticks only to content related to fitness.

Don’t be generic with your content strategy on Instagram.

Pick a niche or an industry — and stick to it.

That’s the only way to grow in a highly competitive platform.

Mistake #5: Not having a consistent posting schedule

Creating content on a consistent basis is hard.

Coming up with new ideas every single day is a challenge.

That’s when social media management tools like Post Planner come in handy.

It allows you to follow top accounts in your niche and generate ideas from it.

You can also use tools like Post Planner to plan posts beforehand and reshare old posts when you’re running out of ideas.

If you’re serious about your social media strategy, tools like Post Planner are a solid investment.

Mistake #6: Not using location-based hashtags

Location-based hashtags can be really helpful for your reach.

It’s true for businesses that operate on a local or regional level.

For example, if you’re a florist in New York, you can include hashtags like “#florist, #floristsofInstagram, #florist life”.

Since you’re a local business operating in New York, you can also include hashtags like “#newyork, #newyorkcity, #newyorkcity_Instagram” etc.

Add a mix of location hashtags to get the extra reach on your Instagram posts.

Mistake #7: Adding irrelevant hashtags

The most common (and ANNOYING) mistake on all social media platforms?

Spamming.

Instagram gives you the freedom to add 30 hashtags on every post.

But if you’re unable to come up with 30 hashtags, you shouldn’t add irrelevant hashtags.

Many social media marketers recommend not using more than 11 hashtags per post — to avoid appearing spammy.

Don’t add more hashtags and reduce your post relevancy.

By adding irrelevant hashtags, you risk spamming your Instagram account.

7 Instagram hashtag mistakes you should avoid

Mistake #1: Keeping your profile private

A private profile is one of the worst things you can do for your hashtag strategy.

If your profile is private, Instagram won’t index your posts on any hashtag pages.

Let’s assume that you have included the following hashtags on your post: #marketing, #sales, #future.

Instagram will only index your posts on the following hashtag pages if your profile is public.

Here’s an example of a public profile.

With a public profile, you can view all it’s contents even if you aren’t following it.

Now, here’s an example of a private profile:

Even if this account uses 100 different hashtags on all their posts, it wouldn’t be indexed on the hashtag pages.

Mistake #2: Using banned hashtags on Instagram

Instagram has a number of banned hashtags you should stay away from.

These hashtags are banned because Instagram users have termed them to be spammy or irrelevant.

One rule of thumb is to insert your hashtag into the “Instagram search bar” and see if it has been flagged.

For example, you might think that ‘#alone’ is completely harmless.

But once you run a search on Instagram, you will find that this hashtag has been flagged for inappropriate use.

Adding too many banned hashtags on your profile , may flag your profile as spammy.

Mistake #3: Being too generic with your hashtag approach

Hashtags like #digitalmarketing, #sales, and #marketing are QUITE generic.

These hashtags have a lot of followers and posts.

But, they also have strong competition at the top.

A good rule of thumb is to niche down and include hashtags that are highly relevant to your post.

Here’s an example of how Dain Walker, a Melbourne-based brand strategist uses a niche hashtag to his benefit.

Apart from generic hashtags like #marketing, #branding, Dain has also included low competition hashtags like #markeitngtips and #brandingdesign.

It’s a solid strategy to have a mix of hashtags that are high competition — as well as low on competition.

Mistake #4: Being generic with your Instagram posts in general

A common mistake Instagram content creators make is being highly generic with their Instagram posts. Instagram is crowded and highly competitive.

If you’d like to be successful on Instagram, stick to a niche and post content related to that. Here are some examples:

Dain Walker sticks to posts related to branding, digital marketing, and content marketing.

Marcus Filly is a fitness trainer and sticks only to content related to fitness.

Don’t be generic with your content strategy on Instagram.

Pick a niche or an industry — and stick to it.

That’s the only way to grow in a highly competitive platform.

Mistake #5: Not having a consistent posting schedule

Creating content on a consistent basis is hard.

Coming up with new ideas every single day is a challenge.

That’s when social media management tools like Post Planner come in handy.

It allows you to follow top accounts in your niche and generate ideas from it.

You can also use tools like Post Planner to plan posts beforehand and reshare old posts when you’re running out of ideas.

If you’re serious about your social media strategy, tools like Post Planner are a solid investment.

Mistake #6: Not using location-based hashtags

Location-based hashtags can be really helpful for your reach.

It’s true for businesses that operate on a local or regional level.

For example, if you’re a florist in New York, you can include hashtags like “#florist, #floristsofInstagram, #florist life”.

Since you’re a local business operating in New York, you can also include hashtags like “#newyork, #newyorkcity, #newyorkcity_Instagram” etc.

Add a mix of location hashtags to get the extra reach on your Instagram posts.

Mistake #7: Adding irrelevant hashtags

The most common (and ANNOYING) mistake on all social media platforms?

Spamming.

Instagram gives you the freedom to add 30 hashtags on every post.

But if you’re unable to come up with 30 hashtags, you shouldn’t add irrelevant hashtags.

Many social media marketers recommend not using more than 11 hashtags per post — to avoid appearing spammy.

Don’t add more hashtags and reduce your post relevancy.

By adding irrelevant hashtags, you risk spamming your Instagram account.

The concept of personality is something which has always fascinated the psychology community. What makes us who we are? Why do some people behave and act in certain ways? How is our personality different from the people around us? In a previous video, we talked about the Myers-Briggs test.

If you haven’t already watched this video, you can check it out after watching this one. But in this video, we’ll take a closer look at the Myers-Briggs test – a method of sorting and categorizing different personalities. Curious about what personality type you identify with? Let's take a closer look at each possible results on this famous test.

ISTJ – The Inspector. The first result is known as "the inspector". The letters in this results stand for Introverted Sensing Thinking and Judging. These people are serious and highly logical. They might even be intimidating to some people because they tend to be very serious and formal. But overall, ISTJ individuals are proper, calm and traditional.

Funnily enough, these people are often misunderstood, perhaps because they often seem very serious. In reality, they value social responsibility and are very ethical. INFJ – The Counselor. Next we have "the counselors", who often have a unique outlook on life because they always look deeper than what's happening on the surface.

The letters in this result stand for Introverted Feeling and Judging with the N representing Intuition. Also known as the advocate, these people are generally seen as diplomats. These people are usually very creative with the ability to view concepts in a much deeper way than others, and they never accept things at face value.

Sometimes other people see INFJ types as a little eccentric. INTJ – The Mastermind. INTJ types are seriously deep thinkers. A more traditional introvert type, these individuals tend to work better alone and can comfortably handle long periods of time without any human contact. The letters in this result stand for Introverted Thinking Judging and Intuition.

These individuals love to develop elaborate strategies and they hate it when things don't go according to their carefully laid out plans. ENFJ – The Giver. Our next personality type is famous for helping others. These people are often extremely ethical and highly idealistic. They love to connect with others and flex their charismatic muscles.

The letters in this result stand for Extraverted Intuition Feeling and Judging. These people trust their gut instinct and intuition more than most, and sometimes get a little disconnected from the real world around them because of it. ENFJ types constantly have one eye on the future for better or for worse.

ISTP – The Craftsman. This is probably one of the hardest personality types to spot. They're also famous for being very hands-on. They keep their cards held very close to their chests and don't give away too much about their inner feelings and motives. People have a hard time figuring out ISTP types.

The letters in this result represent Introverted Sensing Thinking and Perceiving. Sometimes these individuals suddenly act with great spontaneity thoroughly surprising those around them. Often, ISTP types secretly want to be a lot more wild than they allow themselves to be. ESFJ – The Provider. Hen most people think about what the word extrovert means, ESFJ individuals are the ones that come to mind.

They don't just excel when it comes to social interaction, they crave it. They love being in the spotlight, but they're also committed to helping those in need. The letters in this result stem for Extroverted Sensing Feeling and Judging. If you're at a party, ESFJ types are the ones getting all the attention, they probably helped organize the event too.

Out of all the personality types, these individuals are the easiest to spot and they're quite common as well, making up roughly 12% of the population. INFP – The Idealist. These introverts are usually pretty superstitious, seeing signs and symbols everywhere in daily life. They prefer to be alone where they can contemplate the deeper meaning of life.

They are extremely imaginative, often diving deep into their own fantasies and dreams. The letters of this results represent Introversion Intuition Feeling and Perception. These people are seriously reluctant to talk about themselves especially with strangers. On the other hand, they're more willing to spend time with those who have similar values.

ESPF – The Performer. Tons of actors are ESPF types. These individuals don't just enjoy being in the spotlight, they thrive in these situations. They're usually very good at capturing our attention and can hold down an interesting conversation for hours on end. The letters of this result stand for Extroverted Sensing Perceiving and Feeling.

Apart from being great performers, ESPF types genuinely care about the well-being of others and are extremely friendly. ENFP – The Champion. This personality type is a born winner. They dance to the beat of their own drum and carve their own path in life. If these people don't have the chance to fully express their individualism and unique goals, they won't be very happy.

They're also very sociable and they love spending time with others and forging real connections. The letters in this result stand for Extraverted Intuition Feeling and Perception. These people are guided by their feelings but are extremely thoughtful and insightful. ESTP- The Doer. These folks are all about getting their hands dirty and enjoying personal freedom in everyday life.

They don't like rules and they won't let little obstacles hold them back from experiencing all that life has to offer. These individuals don't worry about abstract ideas and will instead focus on the here and now. ESTP stands for Extroverted Sensing Thinking and Perception. These types tend to make decisions without hesitating which may or may not land them in trouble.

ESTJ – The Supervisor. These are some of the most organized people you'll ever meet. ESTJ types are often strong believers in traditional values and they always try to do what's right. As natural-born leaders, these individuals try to look out for everyone else around them. Out of all the personality types, these people often give the best advice and guidance.

ESTJ stands for Extraversion Sensing Thinking and Judging. These individuals love a challenge. ENTJ – The Commander. These people also thrive in leadership positions, and that's partly because they're both logical and intuitive. In many ways, this personality type enjoys the best of both worlds; thinking deeply about their problems while still being extroverted.

ENTJ stands for Extroverted Intuitive Thinking and Judging. These individuals are capable of making quick decisions and they're often correct in their judgment. INTP – The Thinker. These individuals are often responsible for brilliant, innovative new theories. Understanding logic is second nature to INTP types, and they can spot things that others miss.

Never attempt to lie to an INTP type, they'll see right through it! Give them an outlet for their high energy and creative intelligence and there's no telling what they'll accomplish. INTP stands for Introverted Intuitive Thinking and Perceptive. The little mundane details tend to bore INTP types.

ISFJ – the nurturer. These are some of the most helpful people you'll ever meet. ISFJ have hearts of gold and they're always willing to help those in need. These people usually radiate positivity and warmth. ISFJ stands for Introverted Sensing Feeling and Judging. People love being around these personality types, not just because they're helpful, but because they bring out the very best in those around them.

ENTP – The Visionary. Honestly, you'll probably never even meet someone who has an ENTP type. These people are completely rare and they often show up to completely revolutionize the world. The personality is something of a contradiction; while they're extroverted, they also hate meaningless conversations and like to get straight to the point.

They also love to play the devil's advocate and they never shy away from a debate. ENTP stands for Extroverted Intuitive Thinking and Perceptive. Of all the personality types, these individuals often have the deepest understanding of even the most complex concepts and theories. ISFP – The Composer.

Here's another personality type that might seem like a contradiction. At first glance, these people don't seem introverted at all. Although these individuals are warm and friendly, they also like doing their own thing and exploring their own personal goals in life. These introverts understand that meeting new people can teach them new things, so they're much more charismatic than other introverts.

ISFP stands for Introverted Sensing Feeling and Perceiving. These people love experiencing new things. They're also known for being talented artists. Sometimes they struggle with self-esteem issues. So there you have it, all 16 personality types fully explained. Who knows, maybe you'll be able to classify people you meet based on what you've learned in this video.
