# HASHTAG
HASH è il cancellato (#) e tag vuol dire etichetta; ecco cosa significa questa parola super
in voga ed entrata di diritto a fare parte dell’Oxford English dictionary nel 2014. Si
utilizzano gli hashtag sui social network per raggruppare elementi dello stesso tema, e
per aumentare la popolarità delle propio foto o dei propio post. Inutile dire che bisogno
essere bravi a sfruttarli…….

You can take the greatest photograph in the world and put it on line, but if you don’t use
a hashtag with it, most people will probably never see it, so what is a hashtag?

TWITTER
A hashtag is a word or phrase preceded by the symbol “hash” (#) that is used on-line to
identify messages about a specific topic. Traditionally the # symbol was called a hash , a
number sign or, in the USA a pound sign, it was used to indicate a number before a figure
and in the USA the phrase the pond sign.
Then in August 2007 an American Technology evangelist called Chris Messina proposed
using the symbol # to classify messages on Twitter. Later that year people on Twitter
started using hashtags in messages about forest fires in San Diego, California. A new
trend had begun.

HALLOWEEN
Today people use hashtags to promote their posts or to search for posts that they are
interested in. For example, if you want to see posts about halloween you can simply do a
search for #halloween on a site like twitter or instagram to find relevant posts and
photographs.
If you want to see what people are talking about, look at the trending topics on twitter,
this is a list of the top one hundred hashtags in any one country or area, at any one
moment.
If you look at this list on a Monday you will probably see the hashtag #mondaymotivation,
which people use on Monday’s with positive and motivating messages, to help combat
the Monday blues.
If you look at it on a Thursday, you will probably see the hashtag #throwbackthursday,
which people use with nostalgic photographs on that day.

POPULAR

The most popular hashtags on instagram, a site where people post photographs and
videos, include #love, #instagood #photooftheday, #beautiful an #fashion.
So if you want people to see your instagram post, it’s a good idea to use one or more of
these hashtags- But only if they are relevant to your post!!! And if you have difficulty in
deciding which hashtags to use, you can use a hashtag generator to suggest hashtags
for you.
