Question 1

How does the hashtag generator work?

Accepted Answer

Enter a topic (e.g. 'javascript programming') and pick a platform. The tool generates five types of hashtags — direct (#javascript), compound (#javascriptprogramming), variations (#javascriptdev), community (#javascriptcommunity), and trending-style (#javascript2026) — then filters by platform limits, applies spam-tag exclusion, and optionally mixes popular + medium + niche hashtags in a 30/40/30 ratio.

Question 2

Which platforms are supported and what are the limits?

Accepted Answer

Five platforms: Instagram (30 max, 10-20 optimal), Twitter/X (2-3 optimal), LinkedIn (3-5 optimal), TikTok (3-5 optimal), YouTube (3-5 optimal, in description). The tool warns when you request more than the optimal count and hard-caps at the platform maximum.

Question 3

How are hashtags categorized?

Accepted Answer

Each hashtag is tagged as popular (estimated 1M+ posts), medium (100K-1M), or niche (<100K). The mix generator combines the three categories in a 30/40/30 ratio for balanced reach — enough popular tags for discovery, enough niche tags for relevance.
