FAQ
How many hashtags can I use on Instagram?+

Instagram allows a maximum of 30 hashtags per post or reel. However, studies suggest that using 3–10 highly relevant hashtags performs better than stuffing all 30, as Instagram's algorithm may limit reach for posts that appear spammy.

Does Twitter/X have a hashtag limit?+

Twitter/X does not enforce a hard hashtag limit, but the overall 280-character tweet limit applies. Best practice is to use 1–2 targeted hashtags per tweet — more than that tends to reduce engagement.

Why are duplicate hashtags a problem?+

Posting the same hashtag multiple times in one caption does not increase visibility and some platforms (especially Instagram) may flag the post as spam, reducing its organic reach. This tool highlights all duplicates and offers a one-click deduplicated copy.

Does this tool store my text?+

No. All analysis runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your caption or hashtag list is never sent to any server.
