Hashtags

Wedding hashtags that earn their place.

Split by how crowded each one is, which is most of what decides whether a tag can do anything for you.

Tag shapes

The tags that work in weddings have a shape.

Weddings run on a planning clock rather than a daily one. Somebody who just got engaged will spend eighteen months looking, and the tags that reach them are the ones describing where they are in that process. It is also a strongly regional topic: almost nobody hires a photographer or a venue in a country they are not marrying in.

The planning stage

Just engaged, choosing a venue, a month out. It is an eighteen month process and each stage searches for something different.

The region

Almost nobody hires a venue or a photographer in a country they are not marrying in.

The style of wedding

Small, outdoors, religious, second time round. It narrows to people whose wedding looks like the one you photographed.

The common mistake

Tagging the aesthetic and not the region. A venue in one country tagged only #weddinginspiration reaches people who will never travel to it.

Five for one post

A starting five for a weddings post.

One from the crowded end so the post is filed under the right subject, two from the middle where most of the finding happens, and two specific ones where a smaller account can be seen.
  • #weddingBroad: files the post under the right subject
  • #weddinginspirationMiddle: where most of the finding happens
  • #weddingphotographyMiddle: where most of the finding happens
  • #engagedSpecific: where a smaller account is seen
  • #weddingplanningSpecific: where a smaller account is seen

When tags will not help: Tags cannot replace the venue and the date. Couples search the place they are getting married.

In Synclify

Measure them on your own posts.

A saved block of tags never tells you which of them worked. Synclify reads how each tag did across your own posts and writes a set for each new post before it goes out.

Measured on your account's own results, never on a topic average.

How each tag did on your last 30 posts

Sample account
  • #homeworkout
  • #kettlebellflow
  • #fitnessmotivation
  • #morningmobility
  • #fitness

Next post's set keeps the three that found people and swaps the two that did not.

Other topics

All twenty topics, and how crowding decides what a tag can do.
