Hashtag concept
What is a Hashtag?
A Hashtag is a hash (#), or rather, a word that is attached to it for create a label on certain social networks. Initially used by Twitter, little by little it has spread to other corners of the network, to the point of being one of the essential components when transmitting information, grouping content or cataloging trends.
Facebook, Instagram, Google+, Pinterest and many other networks have assimilated and included this element in their operating mechanics due to its great advantage. It is something that can be created from scratch in order to combine content under the same label, or to which it can be contributed if it has already been created previously by another user or even a brand from any sector.
We see them daily in quantities that are impossible to quantify and their use is something that is fully assimilated and normalized by users of social networks. It is very useful in many ways, to the point that it is almost impossible to conceive of a social network without the use or the opportunity to use hashtags in it. Not surprisingly, they have all been jumping on the bandwagon after the proposal made by Twitter several years ago.
