Learn About Social Media Hashtags and How They Are Used

Description

Why Take This Course?

Hashtags help group together conversations taking place on social networks. Everybody is using them to insert their thoughts, comments or strategies into social media conversations.

Each social network has its own unique way to use hashtags. Many people use these in the incorrect manner and wonder why their post doesn't have the reach they were hoping for.

This course is going to put an end to that.

What Should I Expect?

You should expect to have a better understanding of hashtags and know how to use them in the proper manner. You should also be able to differentiate between the different social networks and know the difference in how each network uses hashtags.

Thanks for checking out my course. Please subscribe and make sure to share it with that friend that you know could use some more hashtag knowledge in their life.

You need to add some highlighting og zoom to your videos. It is very difficult to follow what you are doing / talking about / pointing to without highlighting. You mouse isn't that clear.

This was an excellent and concise introduction to what a hashtag is and how it is used Differently on the most popular social media sites. I was really confused about the purpose and value of hashtag. But, after this course I am much more clear about the hashtag concept. I believe I can now use hashtags Responsibly. Thank You!

He was able to share some information about Facebook hashtags that was helpful, but I feel he could have shared how to properly use hashtags to benefit your exposure online.

instructor bounces around a lot, seems very random and not organized in a framework that helps me understand. The instructor does seem to know what he's talking about but relentless ummms and ahhhhs are distracting. Its a free course and I appreciate his effort.

The instructor used a lot of filler words; um.... like... and rambled on. Would benefit from making it more engaging, provide personal exerience, show us what companies use hastags the best, show us different tactics on how it is done and a list of best practices. It was very basic and most of us know what these platforms do and what hashtags are, more information on how to use them and what works best in a clear and organized manner.

This was completely useless and a waste of time. It didn't mention anything that you wouldn't already know as a user of social media. No wonder it's free. Don't bother wasting time on this.

Overall a basic understanding of hashtags. The course is more for people with no knowledge, appreciate the clarity of the information.

it's pretty basic, for beginners. that's okay, but it could have been done in about one third of the time.
