What hashtags do on TikTok

Hashtags help TikTok understand your video and show it to people who like videos like it.

They tell TikTok who the video is for

TikTok looks at your caption, your hashtags, the sound and what happens in the video to decide who sees it. Tags that describe the video send it to the right people. Tags like #fyp or #viral describe nothing, so the generator never suggests them.

Mix specific and broad

A specific tag like #SourdoughStarter reaches fewer people, but they want exactly that video. A community tag like #BreadTok reaches people who follow the whole niche. One broad tag adds the wider subject. The generator picks a mix to start with, and you can change it.

Hashtags help, but the caption matters more

People search TikTok in plain words, so a clear caption does most of the work. Write one with the free TikTok caption generator, then add three to five tags from here.

Questions, answered

How does the TikTok hashtag generator work?

Paste your caption or describe your video and press Generate hashtags. AI suggests fifteen hashtags in three groups: specific, topic and broad. The generator picks five to start with. Tap tags to change the pick, then copy it.

How many hashtags should a TikTok have?

Three to five is plenty. TikTok has no fixed limit apart from the caption's length, but a few tags that describe the video work better than a long list.

Do hashtags still work on TikTok?

Yes, as one of several signals. They help TikTok understand what the video is about, and people can tap a tag or search for it to find videos. The caption, the sound and the video itself matter too.

Should I use #fyp or #foryou?

No. They say nothing about your video, so they don't help TikTok find the right viewers. Use tags that describe the video and its community instead.

Are there TikTok hashtags I should avoid?

Leave out tags that have nothing to do with your video, and search a tag before you use it. If TikTok shows no videos for it, or a warning, don't use it.

Is the TikTok hashtag generator free?

Yes. It is free, with no login and no sign-up. To keep it free for everyone, each person can generate up to 30 sets of hashtags a day.

What happens to what I type?

Your text is sent to OpenAI, whose AI suggests the hashtags. Posttyy doesn't save your text or the hashtags.
