Hashtags are a critical tool in the social media world. It’s a great way to push the visibility of a post and increase your reach. Often used as a universal tag, hashtags gather relevant and related posts in one folder-like space.
Why use hashtags?
Adopting a hashtag strategy and using hashtags to its full extent will encourage your overall engagement and potentially gather more leads.
A study by Fohr Insights has found that even using a single hashtag can help, with a post’s engagement averaging 12.6% more than one without. Imagine what it could do with a comprehensive list of hashtags!Â
But where do you start? Well, on prominent social media platforms like Instagram and Twitter, there is generally a limit. With 30 hashtags to play with on Instagram, you have a lot of ability to pick and choose among a wide option of tags. Meanwhile on Twitter, the recommended use is only up to two for every tweet.Â
While we suggest using the obvious hashtags relevant to your post, you can also base hashtags on the day of the week you are posting.
Each day has several different hashtags. From general tags to day-specific trends, the seven days of the week have their own celebratory hashtags for relevancy. Plus, they can even give you content ideas!
To see the hashtags for each day, keep scrolling.
Hashtags for each day of the week
While we have an extensive list of hashtags waiting for you below, it is always good to know the basic guidelines so you can get the most out of your hashtagging!
It is encouraged to post and include the selected hashtags on the day it refers to. Not only does it simply make sense and stops you from looking like a fool to your viewers (try not to #tgif when it is a Monday…) but using the right hashtags will encourage interaction from people who are viewing your post on that relevant day.
This means more engagement as it is fresh and relevant to the selected hashtag. It also means more people are looking at that hashtag that day! So, keep this in mind and you’ll be sure to help your engagement rates.
