Hashtag generator. Keywords in, tags out.

How to use the Hashtag Generator

This generator builds a hashtag list from your own keywords and, if you want, a ready-made pack of popular tags for your niche. It makes direct, combined, singular and plural variants of the words you type, mixes them with the pack in the ratio you choose, and checks your selection against Instagram, X and TikTok counts. It is for creators and small businesses who want a starting set of tags to pick from.

Step by step

1. 1
   Type your topic

   Enter two to five words in Topic or keywords, for example vegan food blog. Suggestions appear as you type. Only the first eight words are used.

2. 2
   Add a niche pack

   Pick one of the 12 options in Niche pack, such as Marketing, Food or Real estate, to blend in up to 20 popular tags for that niche. Leave it on None, keywords only to use your own words alone.

3. 3
   Set the count and the mix

   Drag How many between 5 and 30 tags. The default is 15. Under Mix mode, Balanced (the default) makes about half the list from your keywords, Niche makes about 70% from your keywords, and Broad about 30%, filling the rest from the pack.

4. 4
   Choose the format

   Under Format, pick lowercase (the default) or CamelCase, which capitalizes each word, as in #VeganFoodBlog. Uncheck include # if you only want the words.

5. 5
   Select the tags you want

   Click tags under Suggestions to select or deselect them, or use Select all and Clear selection. Shuffle changes the order. The Platform check panel updates with every click.

6. 6
   Copy, download or save

   Copy selected copies your picks separated by spaces, and Copy all copies every suggestion. Download .txt saves one tag per line, using your selection or every tag if none is selected. Type a name and press Save to keep the set, then use Load to bring it back later.

Reading the result

• Each word becomes a tag, plus a plural or singular form made by adding or removing a final s. Neighboring words are joined in pairs, words further apart are paired too (up to 10 such pairs), and the first four words are joined into one long tag.
• With vegan food blog, no pack and the default settings, you get 10 tags, including #veganfoodblog, #vegans, #foodblog and #veganblog. Without a pack the list can be shorter than How many, because three words only make so many variants.
• Platform check counts your selected tags only. Instagram shows ok up to 30 and over limit after that, X shows ok for 1 or 2, and TikTok shows ok for 3 to 8 and asks you to add or trim otherwise.
• The pack tags are a fixed list built into the page. They are not live trend data, and the tool does not measure how popular any tag is.

Tips and common mistakes

• Read the plural variants before you use them. Adding an s does not always make a real word, as with #photographys.
• Only the letters a to z and the digits 0 to 9 are read, so accented letters and other alphabets are dropped from your keywords.
• Changing the topic, pack, count or mix rebuilds the list, but tags that are still in the new list stay selected.
• Loading a saved set replaces the current suggestions and selects every tag in the set. Typing in Topic or keywords again replaces the loaded set.
• CamelCase tags are easier to read and work better with screen readers, so they suit long multi-word tags.

Privacy and limits

The tags are made in your browser from your words and the built-in packs. Nothing is sent to any server. Saved sets are kept in this browser's local storage under dh-hashtag-sets, so they stay on this device only and are removed if you clear site data.
