How do you tag nature on instagram?
If you’re wondering “How do you hashtag nature?”, it’s really easy with my hashtag lists.
You can use these lists of nature hashtags for instagram reels, instagram grid posts, and all your other social media posts. All you need to do is copy and paste the relevant list – it’s that simple.
You might also like to bookmark this post, so that finding popular hashtags for instagram posts with a nature theme is always quick and easy.
Why use instagram hashtags?
Put simply, insta hashtags allow your posts to reach a bigger audience. If you include a hashtag, your post will show up in the results for that specific hashtag. Also, users can follow hashtags, which means your post could appear in their feed.
If you’re interested in growing your instagram following, engaging with a particular interest, or simply getting those likes, using hashtags on your posts is a great idea.
How many hashtags can you use on instagram?
You can use up to 30 hashtags per post on instagram. If you include more than 30, you won’t be able to publish your picture, reel or comment.
It’s a good idea to mix up the hashtags you use, rather than using the same ones for every post. The lists in this post are a simple way to do just that, without having to spend ages hunting down the best hashtags for nature photography.
How many nature hashtags should I use?
You might be wondering whether it’s best practice to use the maximum 30 hashtags on your posts. There’s no definitive answer here, but it’s generally suggested that around 11 hashtags is a good number to aim for.
If you’re looking to use instagram nature hashtags to get likes, it’s worth playing around with the number of hashtags you use, to see whether different numbers influence the level of engagement.
Is it better to put hashtags in comments?
If you don’t like the idea of filling your photo caption with lots of hashtags, you can add them in a comment once you’ve published your post.
Another option is to hit ‘Return’ a few times after your caption, then add your hashtags. This makes them less visible thanks to the ‘… more’ feature on posts.
When it comes to engagement, there isn’t much in the way of hard evidence to suggest that putting hashtags in comments is either good or bad. Personally I would suggest going with whichever option you think looks best, or trying both and monitoring the effect on reach and engagement.
