@@BenHaberWorld Hi Ben! Thanks so much 😊 I know a lot of people put their hashtags in the comments of their posts because they think having it in the caption is "too messy" or "messes up the aesthetic". I don't think it matters that much to me visually! The only time I see it being NECESSARY is if your caption is already maxed out on it's character limits and the hashtags don't fit 🥰

Millie, don’t ever stop making vids, cause you’re totally my life line lol. Thank you 🙏🏾 ❤️

Wow so happy to see your video! I used to be so strong on my hashtag game and in the past few months it’s wildly changed... now I get why!

Great explanation! I like how you explains how the hashtag should be in a different order. I strongly believe that. And I agree with hashtag in caption instead of comments too.

Can you do an update video on whether or not your hashtag cleanse works?! Thanks for this amazing video btw! So much more helpful than any of the others that I have watched.

Thanks Millie! OMG a year ago I was using an app to create hashtags, then suddenly my engagement and reach tanked. I quit using the app, now I know from this that because it had me cut and paste the hashtags it totally sank me for a bit! Love your videos. Candy

Wow such a great video and very insight👏🏾👏🏾it's always good watching you as there is something to learn and take on board as always. 💕💕

Such great tips, especially changing the order of the hashtags!

Thanks for this. I'm struggling with a stagnant following on my instagram and just embarked again on my KZread channel only. Keep up the lovely content Millie!

I SWEAR THIS IS THE BEST HASHTAG VIDEO I HAVE WATCHED AND MAN I WATCHED A LOT! I have been looking for the perfect hashtag generator to help me choose the right hashtags so that people can actually see me! OMG I suddenly love you so much!! Thanks a lot! I am subscribing! please come again with more vids like this. please collaborate with Later app to explain to us how to rightly schedule and work our IG pages please. I thought Later would help me figure this hashtag thing but it did not. We love your work, keep UP LOVE

Thank you for another great video! I suck at hashtags.

One of the best vids I've seen on this, thank you. Little confused about the bullseye hashtags though... If the hashtag in question has a lower avg engagement than my account then that could be anywhere from X (my account) to zero, right? But if the hashtag has zero or low engagement isn't that a bad one to go after? It could be a hashtag not used or seen much right? Would love to here your thoughts, thanks again!

Very impressive, I’ll give a go. Thanks

Thank you so much for this interesting video, indeed some new information on the hashtag topic. You mentioned the Insta flagging when doin certain things to often etc. Can you make a detailed video on that? This would be so cool. I have the feeling my account often gets flagged because I try to put my insta use in as little time as possible witch maybe to much activity in the short amount of time. A video with some advices would be so good. Thank you so much 🤓🤓🤓

I have a little question regarding the # cleanse, does it mean you posted without hashtag for 2 weeks ? 😃 thank you for this rich video !

love ur videos

A thing that so many people don't think is that the amount of users of a hashtag is about the number of people _posting_ it, not the number of users _reading_ posts with this hashtag or even following this hashtags. Online stores for instance, a lot of them, use a lot of hashtags that none of his clients really care about. So they are showing off to themselves, the competition, instead to their desired audience.

Great tips, thank you! Is there a way to see if a hashtag is banned or not the moment you are typing it in your future caption? I only have pop ups showing what the number of posts is by that hashtag. Also, I noticed that starting from the USA elections my hashtags' views have decreased drastically - do you know why that might be? I am not shadowbanned, but my posts used to typically get 500-1000 views from hashtags, now they typically get 50 and only one post in seven gets 500-1000.

Hi Millie, since I noticed that some reels only get 3 or 4 likes, could be possible that I did too much mentions in the caption? I mean is there a limit? Or I did the mistake to mention the same person both on caption and on post tags?

I have a question!! So regarding “mixing up hashtags,” will it work if I just change the order of the hashtags? Or should I use entirely different sets of hashtags??
