Using hashtags on Instagram can let you reach more people than you can count. but how to search for Instagram hashtags effectively? Which tools to use?
That’s exactly what this blog post is about.
With these tools, you will reach more of your dream customers than you can count.
1. Flick
Flick is the very best tool to search for Instagram hashtags that I know.
It lets you do a great hashtags search, see the hashtag metrics (like average likes, average comments, posts made, competition score, etc.), create hashtag collections, and see Instagram performance report.
If you want to make the most out of your hashtags, this is the choice…
Let’s take a closer look at the features:
Hashtag Search
All you have to do is to enter a keyword or hashtag and Flick will provide you 40 suggestions that are either:
Related:
- Hashtags that are frequently used together in content that is ‘ranking’ (proven to have worked for people before) based on your search.
Similar:
- Gives you hashtags that are textually similar to your search.
And the amazing thing is that it will also notify you if the hashtag is banned or flagged. That will help you avoid using hashtags that would hurt you in the long term.
Also, it lets you filter hashtags based on your strategy, which you will find useful. I love this tool because of that.
Hashtag Metrics
If there is something that you need to know when you research your hashtags, it’s the hashtag metrics.
In Flick you can see the average likes, posts made, average comment, DAPC, competition score, and potential reach score.
It is incredibly useful.
Hashtag Collections
Flick also lets you centralize the location for all your hashtags, build a library of options for your posts, test different variations, and re-use top-performing groups.
Instagram Performance Reports
When you link an Instagram account, you will be able to track the progress you are making.
In the report, you will see your reach, impressions, change in followers, profile visits, impressions, website clicks, & daily breakdowns.
That way, you will be able to easily audit your account and see what works and what doesn’t work.
If you want to check the tool, you can by clicking here. However, let’s move to another tool you can use to search for Instagram hashtags…
All Hashtag
All-hashtag is another great tool that you can use to search for Instagram hashtags. It has 3 criteria that you can search based on. Top hashtags, random hashtags, and live hashtags.
If you are going to try it out, I strongly recommend that you are going to search for “random” hashtags for the biggest chance to get results.
And even though, it is not anywhere close to what you can do with Flick, you will find it useful as a tool to use to search for Instagram hashtags.
Keywordtool.io
Keywordtool.io is known as an awesome tool for SEO purposes, but you can use it to search for Instagram hashtags as well!
There is a free and a pro version, but you can get results with both. All you have to do to search for Instagram hashtags that you are going to use in your posts is simply visit the website, type a keyword in the search bar, select “Instagram”, and search.
That’s it. It is super simple and it works really well.
Tags Finder
Tags finder is a really simple tool to search for Instagram hashtags. All you have to do is to type a keyword in the search bar and it is going to recommend you a ton of hashtags, including some related ones and suggestions that don’t contain the keyword itself.
That way you will be able to reach a broader audience. Of course, it’s not as advanced as with Flick, but it works really well.
So try to search for Instagram hashtags with this tool as well, it is really fantastic!
Not Just Analytics
Not Just Analytics is an awesome tool to analyze your profile, discover a lot of data, and improve based on that.
But what is also awesome is that it can be used to search for Instagram hashtags.
All you have to do is to type in a username of your competitor and it is going to show you which hashtags they use most frequently and let you copy, them just like in the example above.
It is a fantastic tool to search for Instagram hashtags and it will get you some results.
Just Copy ‘Em
This is a tip that you might not expect, but sometimes the quickest (and best) way to search for Instagram hashtags is just to go to a profile of one of your successful competitors and copy their hashtags.
It takes about 0.0001 seconds and it works like crazy. Just make sure that the post you copy the hashtags from is kinda relevant to yours.
IQ Hashtags
IQ hashtags is a great (and partially free) tool to search for Instagram hashtags. It requires you to sign up, but that’s just a minor difficulty.
If you want it works for searching Instagram hashtags like crazy. So, give it a shot.
