They help attract more people to your page and content and can potentially even land you some superb deals and collaborations! Let’s take a closer look at: why you should use hashtags popular tiktok hashtags and how to find trending hashtags on TikTok Why it is essential to use hashtags on TikTok If becoming a content creator, a successful one, and possibly even making money on TikTok, is something you wish to do, you must learn about popular hashtags on TikTok and why they are so important. So the primary role of trending TikTok hashtags is to help you reach those who are not following you yet. Your followers are likely to see your content no matter the hashtags, but it will be hard for new people to discover you if you’re not using some of the trending hashtags on TikTok. But on TikTok, many people follow or search hashtags, so mastering the hashtag game will give you more chances to become visible to those who are not following you yet. How to search for hashtags Let’s dive deeper into the world of trending TikTok hashtags and learn how to find trending hashtags. It’s pretty simple, really. All you need to do to find popular TikTok hashtags is open the TikTok app and on the bottom of the screen, tap the second option – “Discover”. You will recognize it by the illustration of a magnifying glass. This will open a page with videos that are tagged with trending TikTok hashtags. You can now search through the suggested videos or use the search bar at the top and look for trending hashtags on TikTok that you want to see more of. It really is that simple. Your hashtag strategy for 2022 Now that you know how to find trending hashtags on TikTok, let’s discuss your best TikTok hashtag strategy. By strategy, we mean that you should use your hashtags wisely. Because just adding popular TikTok hashtags to your videos won’t get you anywhere if you don’t have a plan. First, you will need to get familiar with TikTok analytics to find your audience and be consistent with your content and hashtags. People often want to know how many hashtags on TikTok are okay to use, and we often recommend using 3 to 5 hashtags on TikTok. But that doesn’t mean you should add #funny to a video that is not funny or another popular hashtag just because it’s popular. Before you start adding hashtags, you need to consider who your video is meant for and what you want them to do with it (like, share, comment). If your goal is to go as wide as possible, the best hashtags for TikTok will do the trick. But if you’re creating niche content, popular TikTok hashtags that have nothing to do with your content will only harm you! That’s why it’s important to know what hashtags to use on TikTok if you want to succeed in your field. Best practices for using TikTok hashtags As we said many times before, there is no universal formula for becoming viral on TikTok or YouTube or Instagram or anywhere. Knowing how many hashtags to add on TikTok or what the most popular ones are won’t get you anywhere if these hashtags do not fit you and your content. The best practice would be choosing your niche, posting regularly, interacting with your followers and being consistent in terms of content and hashtags. Another good practice that is getting more and more popular is TikTok live, so if you have something interesting to share from your niche, you can go live from time to time and entertain your followers with great TikTok music. But just as an inspiration, here are some popular hashtags in different popular niches. Dancing #music #dance #dancer #party #dancelife #dancing Cooking #cooking #food #foodporn #cheff #jummy #tasty #foodie #chef Fashion #fashion #style #ootd #moda #model #fashionblogger Fitness #fitness #gym #workout #fit #fitnessmotivation #motivation #bodybuilding #gymlife Crafts #crafts #handmade #diy #art #craft #crafting #crafty #gifts #creative Wrap up To conclude, using popular hashtags on TikTok can help you reach a wider audience than your followers alone, but you will have to use them mindfully. Just slapping numerous highly popular hashtags onto your videos won’t get you anywhere, especially if they have nothing to do with your content or if your content is not good. So instead of focusing on finding the best hashtags to use on TikTok, opt for 3 to 5 popular ones in your niche, and direct your energy into creating interesting and original content and a profile worth following!
