Hashtags – love them or don’t, they are here to stay. A single word or set of words prefixed with a pound sign are referred to as hashtags. They help organize and search for topics based on those keywords. So, if you have a clever tweet about last night’s episode of Game of Thrones, just hashtag it (#GameOfThrones). It will appear to anyone searching for that particular keyword.

Started in 2007, hashtagging is now widely used to cover popular and trending topics. So, how can you integrate this in your social strategy to increase your online presence? Quicksprout brings this handy infographic to help you use it effectively.
