Hashtags will make it easier for readers to find our posts

• As we have seen frequently, hashtags are often used to group content on social media. This will help our posts to be more easily found by readers who like topics like ours post. So that it is easier for us to get more readers.

Hashtags will make it easier to promote our posts

• Each post certainly needs to have unique and different characteristics from other posts. The use of this hashtag is very useful and is one of the effective promotional activities to increase readers in our posts widely. So using this hashtag, non-followers will also find it easier to find out what posts we write.

Hashtags will increase engagement

• The use of hashtags will help readers interested in interacting in our posts. So this will lead to greater engagement for readers in our posts such as increased upvotes, comments, and will follow our account. As I have read in an article, posts that use hashtags will get almost 13% higher engagement than those who don't use hashtags in their posts.

So I think hashtags are one of the most important components in promotional activities to get more readers on our posts. But yeah! In the use of hashtags must also be in accordance with the posts that we write. Why do I say that the use of hashtags must be in accordance with the posts we write? For example, if you use the hashtag #leofinance, the topics you should write about are crypto, analysis, markets and whatever else is included in the blockchain.

But there are also hashtags that you can use on any topic you write about. An example is the hashtag #proofofbrain, you can use this hashtag in all topics that you write in your posts. xD
