lifestyle # love #y and so on you get my point now for the broad hashtag you can use hashtags like # fyp # viral that can be your choice of a broad #but we're going to get into this a little bit later spoiler alert you don't want to use the same hashtags over and over and over and over so just use it sparingly don't use it every time there's a lot of other really really great broad hashtag options that can be more relevant to that video so pick ones that are more relevant to that video Niche specific hashtags are exactly what they sound like these are hashtags that are unique to you your Niche the video that you've posted Etc to get some Niche specific hashtags open up your Tik Tok app go to search type in your Niche your industry press search swipe on over to the hashtag section and it's going to give you a list of Niche specific hashtags so if you type in travel go to the hashtag section right below that you're going to see a bunch of other hashtag recommendations based off of that industry most of the time the niche specific hashtags have less uses than a broad hashtag so broad hasht travels probably going to have like a million or billions of uses whereas like # trvel tips it's a little bit more specific and specified to your video or your content and probably has less uses finally trending hashtags these are hashtags that are trending did I need to add these definitions probably not any who there are two ways of discovering trending hashtags one way is the way that most everybody and every tick tocker or coach will teach you it's the same thing as the niche specific ones you type in your industry you press search you go to hashtags those recommended ones the ones closer to the top are the ones that are trending that's what everybody says that's how everybody teaches it so I'm presenting that as an option to you however this is a great way to see some of the top used hashtags in your Niche but it doesn't really tell you which hashtags are currently popping off you know what I mean like if you think of hashtags as a river shout out to hashtags Slayer for this analogy let's say there's two rivers that you can go down next to each river is a sign One River says a million boats have gone down the river the other one says 250,000 boats have gone down the river what the signs aren't telling you most people will see the 1 million and be like wow that's trending that's popping off but what the signs don't tell you is how many people are currently on that River what if the 1 million sign was that's how many boats went down the river for the past 5 years but the 250,000 is a new River and it got 250,000 boats in 2 months ideally you want to find those current rivers that aren't outdated and are currently happening currently trending hence trending people are there right now people are searching it up right now it is happening in real time so what I like to do to find trending hashtags is going to this website that I will link down below www. ads.
