Microhashtags are community hashtags that have fewer than 100,000 tags.
Macro hashtags are those that have more than 100k or 500k. I recommend preferring micro hashtags. Why?
Because the chances are that with a buy phone number list lower number of photos and videos tagged with a microhashtag, your post won't get lost. If you tag your photo with the hashtag #hair, for example, which has a million tags, there's a high chance that your post will get lost.
For example, #hairdressing has “only” over 12,000 tags, so we can categorize it as a microhashtag. We also see related hashtags here, such as #support.
