    It would be helpful if you speak slower. Most tutors fall in the same trap. Talking faster than the listener can comprehend.



  2. Roshan premasiri on March 2, 2022 at 12:27 am

    If i use the same hashtags for every post, will my content be penalized by the algorithm?



  3. Volleyball with Paul on March 2, 2022 at 12:30 am

    You are crazy smart



  4. YOLO RORO on March 2, 2022 at 12:31 am

    What if I didn’t subscribe nor like or comment, would I get a shout out? 🙂



  5. Bazar Club on March 2, 2022 at 12:33 am

    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.



  6. Rafael Gervásio on March 2, 2022 at 12:33 am

    Good vid



  7. batchen elul on March 2, 2022 at 12:34 am

    You’re so nice and pretty



  14. American Work on March 2, 2022 at 12:44 am

    Nice video. A question, my IG post was originally in the "most recent" posts section, and went to the profile pic of the hashtag page and the #1 post in the "featured" posts section. How did it get there, and how do I do that again?



  15. Nayper 666 on March 2, 2022 at 12:44 am


  16. CaroleZNailz on March 2, 2022 at 12:45 am

    Thank you bunches! Off to research my hashtags. Also so appreciative for the coupon ❤︎



  17. Viviana Troche on March 2, 2022 at 12:45 am

    Found this content by researching rebranding my IG and I am so glad I did. Was feeling a bit overwhelmed with videos that talk so much and say nothing at all. So far I am loving your page and my brain thanks you for getting to the point and actually teaching something. Subscribed!



  18. Adriana Lorena on March 2, 2022 at 12:45 am

    You should not use more Than 13 hashtags and I worked for IG



  19. Monica Emerich on March 2, 2022 at 12:49 am

    Bulls Eye hashtag has me intrigued and confused. Having just started a new business my post engagement is low. Most hashtags relevant to my category have much higher average engagement scores. So with this formula I wouldn’t be using any of these hashtags?



  20. SACTACRACK ON INSTAGRAM 💯💯 on March 2, 2022 at 12:51 am

    just want to thank you👆🏻👆🏻 for always bringing such amazing satisfaction🦋…



  21. wilvzn on March 2, 2022 at 12:51 am

    Came for Hashtags and ended up falling in love with your personality



  22. Jack Quentin on March 2, 2022 at 12:51 am

    This is great but doesn’t this assume that you already have engagement and posts?

    Like the first tip. I came here to check what hashtags to use. I have a photo that I want to post, I’m not sure what hashtag I’m going to use. The post does not have engagement yet so how can I implement the first tip on that?



  23. Huntonbreaker on Instagram on March 2, 2022 at 12:51 am

    ⬆️⬆️⬆️ you’re so good in your professions thank you sir….

    Simple. Concise. Well done.

  31. I Feel Fantastic on March 2, 2022 at 1:03 am

    Took a shot every time she mentions Hashtags.



  32. DaniphantomConcept on March 2, 2022 at 1:04 am

    Thank you💓



  33. David Gauthier on March 2, 2022 at 1:05 am

    super helpful, thanks!



  34. Bettina Morales on March 2, 2022 at 1:05 am

    Definitely am going to try this out!!



  35. Grant Smith on March 2, 2022 at 1:08 am

    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!



  36. Awakening Abroad on March 2, 2022 at 1:09 am

    What do you mean "if my engagement is higher or the same"? how do I calculate that?



  37. andrew hayden on March 2, 2022 at 1:09 am

    thanks for making this entertaining as well as informative 🙂



  38. Candy Holladay on March 2, 2022 at 1:09 am

    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



  39. TheRicokilla on March 2, 2022 at 1:10 am

    So hashtags doesn’t work anymore? Go figure. That’s sums it all dint it..



  40. Adeine Wallace Photography on March 2, 2022 at 1:13 am

    How do you find the individual hashtag stats on IG? I found the overall hashtags result under the "Impressions" title in the post insights. Do you need the app to get it?



  41. Blair Ebanks on March 2, 2022 at 1:13 am

    I’m saying this in an honest way. The "YouTube voice..where people speak with certain tones. I instantly stop watching bc of it. Its bc it seems too fake. Sorry.



  42. Umer Iqbal on March 2, 2022 at 1:14 am

    Amazing.. loved it



  43. Mindset 2.0 with Letisha on March 2, 2022 at 1:15 am
