Oh, the beloved hashtag. It connects us to others like us, and allows those who are interested in our topics to see all of our lovely Instagram pictures. The key to being successful on Instagram is to find other people who have the niche as you do, and borrowing some of their hashtags. Not only does this increase the number of pictures someone will see when they get curious and click, but often other accounts may just send out a thank you. And everyone loves Instagram shares, shout outs, and discoveries! So how do you find other people with similar topics as you? Well, you could spend an entire afternoon following pig trails and end up lost in Instagram, or you could just reference this lovely list of often used hashtags that I have found to work like a charm for my clients and myself…
Here they are, Instagram Hashtags that Will Double your Likes!!
DIY / Design / Home Bloggers: Are you a DIY blogger? You know the ones that can make anything out of nothing, the ones that capture photos of their home that look absolutely stunning, the ones that I envy so. (believe me, this girl can’t DIY much) These Instagram Hashtags are for you ladies…

The hashtag is powerful. You are connecting yourself to other who have similar goals to your own. Let us always empower each other instead of competing.
Follow me on Instagram if you want, I wouldn’t hate it.

Great post! Your blog looks awesome. I use an app called “HashMe”. You type in a hashtag and it gives you a huge list of trending tags that you can click on to copy and paste. It’s pretty awesome and it will change as the trending tags change.
Hashtags are definitely powerful and it can be so hard to find the right ones! Thank you for sharing these with us.
Hi Amy! Just wanted to thank you for this post – I’ve been on an Instagram mission for the last week to improve and grow so I really appreciate these tips! I also loved how you laid them out; so many bloggers give these tips in blocks that are difficult to follow as not all apply to “lifestyle bloggers” etc, as you know we all have our own quirks within the niche! It really helped that I could read each tag and decide if it’s suitable for my strategy! Onward and upward! Huge thanks xx
Good tips, thanks, I putted them all in my notes so I can use them if I need it
