Keep reading to learn more about our four favorite types of marketing hashtags.

 

Brand Hashtag

A brand-specific hashtag is a fundamental marketing strategy as it brings organic awareness to your brand. Not only will it build a discussion around your company’s brand, but can also naturally create an online community by bringing awareness to your campaign.

 

Content Hashtags

Content related hashtags are useful because they don’t necessarily need to be trending or even specific to your brand. Content hashtags serve as tagged words that are related to your post’s content. This is a great tool for optimizing your search content because it can attract a wider array of audience members based on the words that you tag.

 

Trending Hashtags

Using trending hashtags can help you build an audience beyond your current followers and contacts. Keeping in mind real time, use hashtags that are relevant to your post.

 

Call to Action Hashtags

CTA hashtags can encourage online interaction with your brand by requesting a specific call to action. Adding a verb before your hashtag is a great way to get your audience involved in your brand. This is the perfect way to have your audience naturally share your campaign.
