Want more reach from Hashtags?
Make sure to avoid these 7 deadly hashtag mistakes.

We all make mistakes. It is critical for our growth that we do not repeat those mistakes. In this blog we will discuss seven mistakes to avoid when using hashtags in the Real Estate industry. Save this blog so you can refer to it later, too!

MISTAKE #1

Using Generic/Popular Hashtags
Don’t use popular hashtags like #love that are not relevant to your brand/niche like our real estate and financing home loan industry.

MISTAKE #2

Not researching hashtags will hurt the reach and exposure of your posts. Try these free AI tools like:

MISTAKE #3

Not testing your new hashtags: Testing will help you find what works best for YOU. You never know what kind of hashtags will work best for you and the more you know, the better your exposure.

MISTAKE #4

Using Hashtags with emojis
This one seems pretty obvious to us, but it happens… more than you might realize. So, don’t use hashtags with emoji’s as they are harder to type, people will naturally avoid searching for such hashtags. Stay simple and relevant related to the real estate industry.

MISTAKE #5

Repeating Hashtags
We might need to take a spoonful of our own medicine for this one. But it’s true, don’t use the same set of hashtags for every post. Create 2-3 sets and use them.

MISTAKE #6

Adding hashtags in the bio
Adding hashtags to your bio/profile looks spammy. Keep hashtags to your posts and stories, that is where they belong.

MISTAKE #7

Using Irrelevant hashtags
Hashtags that are not related to your niche (real estate and financing home loans) will hurt your brand and confuse your audience.
